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

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.

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.
