what is webstorm
But even with this great support, I still find the JavaScript editing in Visual Studio to be less than Iâd like. To that end, I use WebStorm even if I am building apps with ASP.NET MVC. What is WebStorm? WebStorm is a JavaScript IDE from the makers of Resharper and IntelliJ IDEA. It supports client-side JavaScript development as well as Node.js support. This way I can do the development in WebStorm, but I still use Visual Studio to launch the application. But you can still use the WebStorm debugger using the JetBrains browser extensions (only works with Firefox and Chrome though): To make this work, youâll just need to configure debugging in WebStorm to debug like itâs a remote web server (which in this case is just IIS Express).
