Is it possible to debug Paraview by vscode (or some other IDE except visual studio)?

Hi, I am a new learner of Paraview and I would like to learn it through breakPoints and debugging. I followed the building tutorials here and by changing -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release to -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug, I suppose that the generated files could be debugged. Then I got a folder structured like this:

However, I am not sure how to debug it using vscode(or some other IDEs). Is there any tutorial that shows how to debug this?

VSCode tutorials on how to debug CMake projects may also be useful to search for. Someone here may be able to help, but I suspect that searching/asking in that venue may also be useful.

FWIW, on Windows I usually launch programs and attach from Visual Studio (I’ve never used VSCode myself).

Clion does it out of the box in a very straight forward way.
