If you make any code modifications, you will need to invoke the build/install/debug loop to run the new code.

### Firefox

Although we currently emphasize Chrome support, it might be occasionally useful to debug an environment that uses Firefox as its default web browser.

If that eventuality arists, then to set that up, install the Firefox debug extension to vccode (https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=firefox-devtools.vscode-firefox-debug).

Open a terminal and start firefox using this command:

`firefox --start-debugger-server`

Then from vscode, use the launch configuration named "Local Firefox Attach"
