Show HN: CodeTracer – A new time-traveling debugger implemented in Nim and Rust


CodeTracer is a user-friendly time-traveling debugger designed to support a wide range of programming languages. - metacraft-labs/codetracer

Every time you jump to a new moment in the execution, you can fearlessly explore your surroundings by stepping forward or backwards, having access to a back button that can always get you to any previous point of interest. Most of its functionality will be packaged into reusable libraries that will power the creation of block explorers with advanced transaction tracing capabilities and omniscient debugging plugins for Visual Studio Code and other IDEs. Many developers tend to transition from using interactive debugging early on in their careers, to mostly relying on carefully placed print statements as they start to face harder problems in distributed and real-time systems.
