JavaScript Express Basics (2015) The Request and Response Objects in Express Requests and the request object

Console is not working.

Sorry. Totally messed up in these 'debugging' methods...

First I'm using

$ nodemon --inspect src/app.js

as mentioned in previous forums.

Everything works OK, I can watch req, res method on the right of my chromeDevTools by clicking them from the list, but console still doesn't work.

Any help/clarity with these debuggers and also their version changing stuff?

I can't get anything to run in the console. Extremely frustrating. 'Use Strict' causes an error, and If I take out 'use strict' it then says "app is not defined" (its a variable with var keyword). Anything I'm missing? Ive run far more complex express servers but never was taught this debug method. 1) Is this worth the time and frustration( can I skip over debugging for this course)? 2) How do I get the console to display the info I need for debuggin?

I face the same issue. I can put any information in the chrome console.

Same here.
