The dd helper can be used like console.log but it provides a better visual experience and also comes with a HTML printer. The helper throws an exception and self handles itself to render the dumped value inside the browser (during an HTTP request) or in the console (default output).
You can use the dd helper as follows.
import { dd } from '@adonisjs/core/services/dd'
dd(someValue)The same helper is available in Edge template as @dd tag. Also, within Edge templates you may use the @dump to inspect a value without throwing an exception.
{{-- Dump and halt rendering --}}
@dd(someValue)
{{-- Dump and continue rendering --}}
