Visual Studio Code

If using Visual Studio Code, to launch helios using the debugger add this to "configurations" in launch.json:

    {
        "name": "Python: Django",
        "type": "python",
        "request": "launch",
        "program": "${workspaceFolder}/manage.py",
        "args": [
            "runserver",
            "--noreload"
        ],
        "django": true,
        "justMyCode": false
    }

Set "justMyCode" to True for Call Stack to show your own code only.
