WWDC24: Run, Break, Inspect: Explore effective debugging in LLDB | Apple
Learn how to use LLDB to explore and debug codebases. We'll show you how to make the most of crashlogs and backtraces, and how to supercharge breakpoints with actions and complex stop conditions. We'll also explore how the "p" command and the latest features in Swift 6 can enhance your debugging experience.
