Notes from contributors

• Babel compile Issue when starting Debug in JSX/TSX,

  • check the post of @Dot-H https://github.com/firsttris/vscode-jest-runner/issues/136
  • https://github.com/firsttris/vscode-jest-runner/issues/174

• By default Jest finds its config from the "jest" attribute in your package.json or if you export an object module.export = {} in a jest.config.js file in your project root directory.

    "sourcemaps": "inline",
    "disableOptimisticBPs": true,
}
