I mean the ability to connect to and interact with a running JavaScript
process. Currently Jade has support for:
- a REPL connected to a JavaScript runtime, with code completion;
- an object inspector, with the ability to dive, go back, etc;
- scratch buffers for JavaScript evaluation;
- a stepping debugger, with stack frame locals inspection.

Of course.

I'm considering it. I know GitHub is not the most ethical choice, but
it certainly is convenient.

It supports Chromium (I never use Google Chrome, but Jade does support
it), and NodeJS. Both are free software.
The Firefox backend is missing, but as Firefox is my main web browser, I
will add a backend for it ASAP.
