I have an Angular2+ project and I need to create launch.json file inside of .vscode folder that is supposed to be immediately under my Angular project folder. I do not see .vscode folder.

I can create it with the command prompt but I wonder why do I not have one in my project when the instructions I am following assume it should be there already?

Figured out the way to do it.

  1. In VS Code, click on Debug button:

  2. In the Debug toolbar on top, click Configure button:

  3. The popup will appear under VS Code toolbar, asking which debugger you want to use. Select one from the list. Node.js debugger is built into VS Code. I installed Chrome debugger and it shows up in the list.

Selecting one of the debuggers creates .vscode folder (if it did not exist) and saves the file launch.json in it.
