I'm developing a webapplication (asp.net mvc 4) with Microsoft Visual Studio 2012, and as the solution is getting bigger, the debug is getting slower.
Need to know if there is a way to debug only my client side (javascript) on visual studio instead of the entire application (server+client).
Is there any way to attach to process of IE and get the breakpoints working ....?
Not interested on get the debugger running on entire client/server application, just client.

Go to Tools -> Options -> Debugging -> General and turn on the setting Enable JavaScript Debugging for ASP.NET (Chrome, Edge and IE). Then once you will hit "F5". Using above option you can now debug both JavaScript and TypeScript directly in Visual Studio when using Google Chrome or Edge as a browser.
But fortunately, all modern browsers have a built-in JavaScript debugger. Built-in debuggers can be turned on and off, forcing errors to be reported to the user. With a debugger, you can also set breakpoints (places where code execution can be stopped), and examine variables while the code is executing.
Visual Studio will ask if you want to enable JavaScript debugging and then restart the debugging process and bind your breakpoint. Click Enable JavaScript Debugging (Debugging Will Stop and Restart). Click “Enable JavaScript Debugging” and Visual Studio will restart debugging. We know that the first two terms in the Fibonacci sequence are 0 ...

One of the key features of Visual Studio Code is its great debugging support. VS Code's built-in debugger helps accelerate your edit, compile and debug loop. VS Code has built-in debugging support for the Node.js runtime and can debug JavaScript, TypeScript, or any other language that gets transpiled to JavaScript.
Debug client-side script Visual Studio provides client-side debugging support for Chrome and Microsoft Edge (Chromium) only. In some scenarios, the debugger automatically hits breakpoints in JavaScript and TypeScript code and in embedded scripts on HTML files.
First open Visual studio ..select your project in solution explorer..Right click and choose option "browse with" then set IE as default browser.
Now open IE ..go toTools >> Internet option >> Advance>> uncheck the checkbox having "Disable Script Debugging (Internet Explorer). and then click Apply and OK and you are done ..
Now you can set breakpoints in your JS file and then hit the debug button in VS..
EDIT:- For asp.net web application right click on the page which is your startup page(say default.aspx) and perform the same steps. :)
