As far as I know, I don't think there is a code editor just made for "debugging". Just use whatever code editor you normally feel the most comfortable with and use various tools or techniques to debug your code.

Personally speaking, I just use VS Code and it works really well for me.

I would suggest to use browser developer console for debugging.
It will not only help you in debugging but will also help you to understand how javascript code works in javascript engine step by step.

Tip:
Just use debugger/breakpoint in your code, which will help you to see your code working step by step.
