I have built a new "Hello World" plugin for Jenkins and I was able to upload it onto Jenkins and it works successfully. I am now trying to make change to the plugin and debug it on Jenkins.
Note: My Jenkins is deployed in my local tomcat, i build the hpi file and copy it to jenkins plugins folder, it works.
Now i want to ask how can i debug my plugin code? Suggestions with any IDE is welcome. I also have questions about:

Just add hpi:run in "Command line" filed and start Debug as usual. When the console says that your "Jenkins is fully up and running", open a browser and go to http://localhost:8080/jenkins/ and your code will stopped at break point (if any).
From the web UI. The simplest and most common way of installing plugins is through the Manage Jenkins > Manage Plugins view, available to administrators of a Jenkins environment. Most plugins can be installed and used immediately by checking the box adjacent to the plugin and clicking Install without restart.
I imagine you ran
mvn package
to create your package
To debug you can do
mvnDebug hpi:run
and this will copy all the dependencies down (rather than in your jenkins install) and run it in place
If you are using an IDE then this can be done from within it.
