Is there a way to emit the debugger statement to final compiled JS code? That would help to debug the compiled code in browser dev tools tremendously..

js("debugger;")?

It is that simple? 🤦‍♂️

That works great from js module, but can it be done from common module in KMP?

For full syntactic sugar (I think this would work, haven't checked):

expect val debugger: Unit

// other platforms
actual val debugger: Unit get() = Unit

// js
actual val debugger: dynamic get() = js("debugger;")

I see, that is clever hack 🙂

works like a charm, thank you 👍
