Serenji ObjectScript editor and debugger

Serenji, from George James Software, is an extension to debug ObjectScript in a simple and straightforward way so you can focus on producing high quality code.

Since it was launched over 20 years ago Serenji has become a staple tool for all InterSystems developers. Following its success, we re-engineered it as a fully integrated VS Code extension to provide seamless integration with namespaces in your InterSystems environments.

Features

Debug in just one click with zero configuration.
Run ObjectScript code directly without debugging.
Execute one command at a time, stepping in, out or over each statement.
Set breakpoints and watchpoints dynamically.
View and modify variables at each stack level.
Direct navigation to the line in the source file where the error originated.
Optional integration with server-side source control.
Browse, explore and edit ObjectScript (CLS, MAC, INT, INC and CSP) directly on the server.
