Debugging CoffeeScript line-by-line

Question

Is there a way to debug CoffeeScript line-by-line?

I understand that it compiles into Javascript. But this sounds like it could make it a pain to debug.

Answer 1

Coffeescript now supports source maps: http://coffeescript.org/

Jetbrains for example supports this feature: https://blog.jetbrains.com/ruby/2013/01/whats-mining-coffeescript-debugger/
