I'm doing a project in which I used Debugging using visual studio code. I need some clear differences between Step in, Step out and Step Over. I saw vs code debugging documentation but it has no such details related to these. Anyone have idea ?

Step Into will cause the debugger to go into the next function call and break there. Step Over will tell the debugger to execute the next function and break afterwards. Step Out will tell the debugger to finish the current function and break after it.
Step Over is used to skip containers such as Sequences, Flowcharts, Invoke Workflow File activities without going into their sub parts and debugs the next activity. You can use this to skip large container flows which are error free to save time and debug faster. Step Out can be seen as an opposite to Step Into.
If the current line contains a function call, Step Over runs the code and then suspends execution at the first line of code after the called function returns. Step Out continues running code and suspends execution when the current function returns. The debugger skips through the current function.
Step Out. - Step Out continues running code and suspends execution when the current function returns. Step Over - If the current line contains a function call, Step Overruns the code, then suspends execution at the first line of code after the called function returns.
Step in: means that if there is a function call, it goes inside the function and you can see how the function is executing line by line till it returns and you go back to the next line right after the function call.
Step over: means that if there is a function call, it just executes it like a black box and returns the result, but you cannot see how the function was executed.
Step out: means that if you have Stepped in a function and now you want to skip seeing how the rest of the function is going to execute, you Step out and the function returns. Then, you go back to the next line, that is the line right after the function call.
Hopefully, this can help :)
