I believe the book focuses on client-side TS apps?

I build a "wrapper" for this (not public, quick&dirty code). Transfer everything that could be logged via websocket to console and output and colorize it like I do it with a node app. Reduces the time that I need to spend in browser for debugging (click, scroll, open trees, etc.), has same format and it saves much time.
I am sure somebody created a good lib for that on github.

Mostly yes. It touches upon debugging unit tests and server-side code, as well as methodologies applicable to debugging in general, but the practical parts are almost exclusively client-side.

How did you enjoy the process?

I did, thank you! It was hard and long, though. Much harder and longer than I expected it to be. The book ended up being very different from what I initially conceived (for the better, I hope.) I have too much to say to fit it all in one comment, to be honest :)

Great that you finished :)
Do you have a next book project lined up?
Text in the screenshots is barely readable. It should be comparable to default text size.
