1. Install ptvsd using the same Python interpreter Qgis uses. E.g. on Windows:

C:\OSGeo4W64\apps\Python37\python.exe -m pip install ptvsd==4.3.2 

2. Add a debug configuration to launch.json:

{

This gist describes how to add Anaconda Prompt to the Windows right click context menu. This is because at some point, Anaconda no longer adds itself to the PATH after installation.

1. Run regedit.exe
2. Navigate to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT > Directory > Background > shell
3. Add a key named AnacondaPrompt and set its value to "Anaconda Prompt Here" (or anything you'd like it to appear as in the right click context menu)
4. Add a key under this key, called command, and set its value to cmd.exe /K C:\Anaconda3\Scripts\activate.bat (may have to change the activate.bat file to whereever Anaconda is installed)
