Node.js - Debugging and Profiling
Why does Node.js use the WebSocket protocol (ws://) for Chrome DevTools debugging connections?
ABecause WebSocket allows full-duplex communication needed for interactive debugging
BBecause WebSocket encrypts all data by default
CBecause WebSocket is the only protocol supported by Chrome
DBecause WebSocket automatically restarts Node.js on disconnect
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Understand WebSocket role in debugging

    WebSocket supports two-way communication, essential for sending commands and receiving data interactively.
  2. Step 2: Evaluate other options

    WebSocket does not encrypt by default, is not the only Chrome-supported protocol, and does not restart Node.js automatically.
  3. Final Answer:

    Because WebSocket allows full-duplex communication needed for interactive debugging -> Option A
  4. Quick Check:

    WebSocket enables interactive two-way debugging [OK]
Quick Trick: WebSocket enables two-way communication for debugging [OK]
Common Mistakes:
  • Assuming WebSocket encrypts by default
  • Thinking it's the only Chrome protocol
  • Believing it restarts Node.js
