        Depends on your module I guess. If the part you want to debug is in the interface, turning dev console on is the way:

        electron js/electron.js dev
        

        But if you want to debug node_helper side, console.log everything.

            You can also take a look at this. It explains also how to debug from your machine, instead of doing everything via SSH.

              Most of the time when I develop, I run server only mode and test most of the work in a default browser.
