As users' demand soars, simple operations that can be done by a click of menu item or tool button are insufficient. So user has to use python scripts to implement complicated or customized functions. As a common trend, the python scripts developed will only get longer and longer, thus more and more bugs are introduced and hidden deeply which are hard to identify. As a result, debugging tools are necessary for this purpose. Compared to some famous IDEs, the python scripting editor is still immature in terms of debugging. So I hope Maya can take a look at Visual Studios or JetBrains IDE products and learn from them, making debugging python scripts easy or even an enjoyment. The same is true for profiler because sometimes you have to concern about performance. Many existing famous IDEs can also serve as a good model in this regard. In sum, I wish that one day Maya can provide users with a complete set of debugging and profiling functions for Python scripts.
