Debugging in Visual Studio with IE, you can set breakpoints etc and step through your code like C#. If you use Chrome to run your app, the F12 developer tools is WAY better for debugging your Javascript. I switch back and forth depending what I want to do, and must say I prefer debugging in Chrome. Its not in Visual Studio though. On the plus side you could debug your code deployed to test environment... (directly in your browser not in your IDE). Firefox with Firebug used to be the way to go but I don't like it as much as Chrome so don't use it at all.
