Cannot debug javascript on webstorm - webstorm

I'm trying to get debugging to work on ff/chrome. I've checked all the post that come up when you google.
What I've done:
- setup a ff profile
- setup a in place deployment and double checked the remote urls..
- all plugins are enabled (including Javascript debugger)
As it seems the webstorm debugging extension was not installed in firefox (or chrome). I cannot find anything on how to get it installed. (I've allready tried re-installing Webstorm)
When I debug a file, firefox opens, but displays no page and the url-bar is empty..
I'm using Webstorm 4.0 and Firefox 11

Although this post might be outdated:
You need to install the JetBrains IDE extension in the corresponding browser.
When this is done, check if the same host and port are specified for Webstorm as well as for the extension as well.

WebStorm remote development "IDE version" not showing up

I'd like to try the remote development on WebStorm. But the IDE version field doesn't show anything. In the doc it shows there should be showing JetBrains IDEs, but as shown below none of them showing here. What's happening?? Thank.

Dart 2.3 ignores breakpoints

I am developing a web app in Dart using Webstorm as IDE. After upgrading from Dart SDK 2.2 to Dart SDK 2.3 I noticed that all breakpoints I set in Webstorm are ignored (although the app seems to run properly in Chrome) That breakpoints are correctly marked as a "red circle" but unlike the previous SDK they miss the "tick" inside (which I think means they are not recognized by Chrome).
I tried to "repair cache" and "upgrade dependencies" but breakpoints still don't work.
That's the pubspec.yaml dev_dependencies:
dev_dependencies:
build_runner: ^1.4.0
build_test: ^0.10.7+3
build_web_compilers: ^2.1.0
Here is the "webdev serve" command:
/dart/2.3.1/dart-sdk/bin/pub global run webdev serve web:53321
Here is the "webdev serve" command result:
[INFO] Serving `web` on http://localhost:53321
[INFO] Running build completed, took 351ms
[INFO] Caching finalized dependency graph completed, took 177ms
[INFO] Succeeded after 536ms with 0 outputs (0 actions)
Here the versions of envolved softwares:
- O.S.: macOS High Sierra 10.13.6
- Chrome: 74.0.3729.169
- Webstorm: 2019.1 - Build 191.7141.49
- Dart SDK: 2.3.1
- Dart webdev: 2.0.5
I'm trying to figure out if the issue is related to Webstorm, Dart SDK or Chrome. I don't exclude that I miss some new configuration due to the Dart SDK upgrade. Downgrading back to Dart SDK 2.2 everything works fine. Thank you for your hints.
Reproduced, logged as WEB-39095. Please follow it for updates
The bug was in webdev 2.0.0 - 2.0.6. It is fixed in webdev 2.0.7. You may run pub global activate webdev to get the latest version. You might need to close/open the project in the IDE to get it working.

Degugging a react native / expo app with webstorm

I can't debug my react native / expo app in WebStorm, but I can in Visual Studio Code.
I have a react native app that I can successfully run using expo. I set up the configuration according to the info on this site:
https://blog.jetbrains.com/webstorm/2018/02/webstorm-2018-1-eap-181-3263/#debugging-expo
When I click "run" or "debug" and "Debug JS Remotely" is turned off, the bundler builds a JS bundle and the app starts on my devices.
But once I turn on "Debug JS Remotely", the bundler only says:
Starting custom debugger by executing: : [my working directory] [my working directory again]
and never goes on to build the JS bundle.
After a short while, a red screen appears on the device, and it says:
Unable to connect with remote debugger
Timeout while connecting to remote debugger
onFailure
DevSupportManagerImpl.java:851
onFailure
WebsocketJavaScriptExecutor.java:83
run
WebsocketJavaScriptExecutor.java:142
handleCallback
Handler.java:790
dispatchMessage
Handler.java:99
...
The bundler doesn't say anything more than the message above.
As soon as I turn off remote debugging, the the bundler starts building again and finishes with
"Building JavaScript bundle: finished in ...ms"
as usual, but the device, again, shows the red screen with aforementioned messages, or doesn't show anything but the regular white screen with a message at the bottom saying "Downlading JavaScript bundle 100,00%". I either have to stop and restart within WebStorm or I have to close the expo app and re-open it. Either way will make the app start again on my device.
This is my first time working with javascript, react native, expo, so I am not sure, but it should be possible to debug in WebStorm directly, right? As mentioned, in Visual Studio Code everything including debugging works fine, so I don't think it's anything in the code. Maybe someone here has an idea where the problem lies?
node -v: v11.6.0
react-native -v: react-native-cli: 2.0.1, react-native: 0.57.1
Any help will be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!
PROOF
HOWTO
Looks like there's been an update to how you can setup Configurations since you tried.
Try changing the Bundler host to 127.0.0.1 and try again.
I just setup Webstorm v2020.2 yesterday to debug my Expo application and it is working as expected.
These instructions were all that I required: https://www.jetbrains.com/help/webstorm/react-native.html#ws_react_native_create_run_config
On the main menu, go to Run | Edit Configurations, click icons.general.add.svg and select React Native from the list. The Run/Debug Configuration: React Native opens.
Choose whether you want WebStorm to build and launch the application for you:
Select the Build and launch checkbox if you are launching your application for the first time or if you have updated its native code since the last run.
If your application uses Expo, clear the checkbox because this bundler takes care of the process itself.
If you selected the Build and launch checkbox, choose the target platform, Android or iOS. Depending on your choice, WebStorm will run the bundler with react-native run-ios or with react-native run-android.
Optionally, type the arguments to be passed to React Native, for example, specify the simulator type through the ‑‑simulator flag: ‑‑simulator="iPhone 4s".
In the Bundler host field, specify the host where the React Native bundler runs, the default value is localhost.
If you are using Expo, change the default bundler host to ensure successful connection with the debugger. This connection may fail because WebStorm by default uses localhost to start debugging while Expo expects 127.0.0.1 or an external IP address depending on what is selected in Connection field of the Metro bundler configuration. See Debugging a React Native application that uses Expo for details.
In the Bundler port field, specify the port on which the React Native bundler runs, by default 8081 is chosen, learn more from the React Native official website.
Choose the Node.js interpreter to use. This can be a local Node.js interpreter or a Node.js on Windows Subsystem for Linux.
Specify the path to react-native-cli and the working directory of the application. Optionally, type the environment variables for react-native run-android or react-native run-ios.
By default, WebStorm starts the React Native bundler automatically when you invoke the run/debug configuration. If you have already started the bundler from outside WebStorm, for example, from the command line, you can re-use it without stopping and restarting. Select your bundler in the Before Launch area and click Remove.

Disabling infobar in chrome 65

I was trying to run an automation script, once i ran a yellow bar appeared at the top on the screen."CHROME IS CONTROLLED BY AUTOMATED TEST SOFTWARE"
enter image description here
and my scripts stopped running.
I then updated the chrome driver to 2.36, now the scripts are running yet the bar is still visible.
chromeOptions.add_experimental_option("prefs",prefs)
chromeOptions.add_argument('--test-type')
chromeOptions.add_argument("--disable-infobars")
driver = webdriver.Chrome(driver_path, chrome_options=chromeOptions)
Found a solution for it. I downloaded chrome driver 2.37 and disabled the auto-update of chrome Link to disable chrome. Uninstalled chrome65 from system. and reinstalled a lower version. Then my scripts started working.

How to install a browser's extension with c++?

I need a way to install a firefox and chrome extension with my C++ application.
How to do that and how to avoid to install it via browser ( firefox and chrome ) ?
Chrome:
http://code.google.com/chrome/extensions/external_extensions.html
Firefox:

Note that you dont have to close the browser in order to install an extension.
The extension will be found the next time the browser is launched.
