~~Is webstorm usable outside a jetbrains product? In particular, on a headless server?~~

EDIT: That was a dumb question. This IDE looks pretty cool. I'll check it out. But I still want something that I can run headless.

In addition to the standard debugger, WebStorm also give you SpyJS for Node[1], which is a Tracer/Reverse debugger.

Since debugging is over a TCP connection, you only have to start the nodejs process with the debug flag, and then plug the address and port into whatever debugger you're trying to use.
