This is a Qt UI for GDB.

There's also gdbgui that I know of, a web-based UI for GDB:

https://www.gdbgui.com/

Always good to see more movement in the debug tooling

Vscode also has an ok gdb frontend, very nice when you are debugging embedded microcontrollers

To add on to the pile of more GDB GUIs, here's one I've made: https://github.com/dzaima/grr. Though it's still got a fair bit of missing features that may be essential for some uses (due to my usage being largely assembly-level, which doesn't need too many fancy features).

Speaking of web-based debuggers, I recenty created a similar project but focused on x86-64 assembly debugging: https://github.com/robalb/x86-64-playground

And DDD. A Motif front end.

I like how gdb with qt creator works without any complicated configuration. You click on some breakpoints then hit play and the ide takes care of the rest.

and drop down into gdb for complicated prints of variables and such

Qtcreator is phenomenal. I don’t like using anything else if possible.

VSCode's built in debug interface is also pretty great. I use it with the CodeLLDB extension and LLDB.

I don't really understand why people would use a separate debugger to the one that their IDE has. Most IDEs have solid debugger interfaces.
