you don’t need to configure anything
what do you mean
how do i debug my project
either this button up here

it doesn't do anything
i've already tried it
or this one in the side bar

you need to focus a runnable project. a class library can't be debugged of course
by focusing do you mean clicking the project file folder?
Program.cs
file
sure, any file in the executable project
this is what it says

also
i just figured out that i can use
dotnet run
that's not really debugging
you need to add your projects to a solution file
and open that solution with c# devkit
whats a solution file
If you're a beginner, you're going to have an easier time using a proper IDE than getting VSCode to work (it does work, but you need a bit more knowledge to make it happen)
On linux, Rider is a good choice
