The Chrome based dev tools have been an option for years using node-inspector. Had all of the basics that you would expect from a debugging. Breakpoints, step into/out/over, variables available at that location in the stack, REPL console etc.

It was kind of a pain in my experience to use the Chrome debugger to be your main editor. I've not used VSC for this, but I imagine it's nice to not have to flip back and forth between tools.
