== Debugging Webconf with Visual Studio Code ==
This is presented as an example of how a Visual Studio Code can be used to examine a component of the zynthian sub system as it runs using the Visual studio Code extensions, python & remote-ssh.

I have a zynthian called zynthian-orig.local. It's actually a genuine zynthian product running a Pi3 and no membrane switches and some fairly simplistic interface. Indeed it has to be disassembled to change the ssd. Such were the early days.!

The fact that one can run this debug against the modern code is a sign of great overall consistancy.

To access this we press on the + button against the appropriate machine. ( images a little awry here )
To access this we press on the + button against the appropriate machine. Visual Studio Code keeps and manages accurate records on the ssh connections you have made. It's handling of details down to the passwords and such and it's overall willingness to just do stuff as you would expect.

The -A option...?
-A Enable forwarding of the authentication agent connection.

We enter the details for our specific zynthian machine. Zynthian runs as root (atm). It always has done so make sure you put root in here. Many hours can be blissfully wile'd away wondering why you can see a machine you'vee loggged into as the wrong user.
