Description
We develop a Spring Boot App. Most of the front end we develop with Thymeleaf. We use Windows 10/11. Now, we have a more significant growing part that we develop with JavaScript.
I tested it with the WWD snapshot from Friday (27.09), I believe, and the Version from the Eclipse marketplace.
To debug the Javascript part, I set up different configurations.
When I start the debug session, the Javascript Source Code is not found, and the program does not stop on the breakpoints. Does that work at all?
When I start to debug from the HTML File and not from the URL, it works.
A similar test works with VS-Code when I use URL-Base Adress, but I prefer one IDE.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the reported Eclipse debug session with the WWD snapshot or Eclipse Marketplace version on Windows, comparing a URL launch with launching from the HTML file. Review the existing JavaScript debugging configuration and determine whether URL-based debugging works for a Spring Boot and Thymeleaf application. Done means documenting the supported setup, breakpoint behavior, and any limitation clearly.
