Description
A developer who is used to working with a modern IDE including breakpoints and watch variables is quickly frustrated working on the Python side of FreeCAD.
I've tried all the documented methods on the wiki and in many forum posts and never succeeded in getting a debugger to work with the FreeCAD internal python interpreter.
We should recommend a single environment per platform that we know works. Then if the developer wants to use something different, they at least have a reference platform for how things _should_ behave.
