How am I supposed to debug my app without Firebug?
I'm use to work with JavaScript applications for the web using firebug to debug my code. How do I debug my app now, without an web browser?
Right now it takes 60 sec just to compile my application. Then I have to do this 40 times before I got the code right. Which means that it takes at least 40 min just to test my code.
When using the web I can pin point out exactly where I've made the mistake and fix in within a couple of seconds.
Thanks!

We'll support a debugger in the near future, something that I recently announced on the developer blog. We realize it can suck having to use logging for debugging. However, up until Firebug, that's how it was done anyway. :)
We also have some improvements that will come in the release just after 1.1 that will allow you to make changes and reload your app without having to go through the recompile process. We know exactly how to make this work but need to complete the 1.1 release first. This will make it significant faster when running in the simulator to round trip.

Cool. Will I be able to debug Python as well as Javascript?

Jeff, I searched your roadmap page and your issue tracker for references to this debugger with no avail; is it still planned? If so, could you give me a link to the issue in the issue tracker so I can track its progress? This is a pretty major need for me too.

Any news on this one?
I'm still having the same problem.
It takes forever to figure out where the errors are. -

This is huge! A debugger is something I need before even considering a switch to using this type of x-platform framework. I'm interested in the mobile side so Firebug doesn't seem to provide a solution for this.

Any news? Working without a debugger and just logging is not the worlds most efficient way..
