A modern, browser-based frontend to gdb (gnu debugger)
gdbgui is a browser-based frontend to gdb, the gnu debugger. You can add breakpoints, view stack traces, and more in C, C++, Go, and Rust!
It's perfect for beginners and experts. Simply run gdbgui from the terminal to start the gdbgui server, and a new tab will open in your browser.
gdbgui works by using gdb's machine interface. gdbgui runs gdb as a subprocess, then sends and reads machine interface data to create an interactive user interface. You can learn more about how it works here.
Testimonials

I've only used @grassfedcode's gdbgui for a couple of days, but wow, it's pretty awesome and so dead simple to get up an running. —Lou
Seriously, great front-end to gdb for those of us who are not always using a full IDE. Great project. —Jefferson
Where were you all my life? And why did I use DDD? —Mario
