Hi, I have installed Shopware 6 on Docker and wondered if anyone was successfully using the debugger with Twig files. I am trying to debug my plugin and using the plugin to create new elements, blocks and extend blocks, but I would like to see the variable outputs and I am not sure how to go about this, as from the [documentation on PhpStorm](https://www.jetbrains.com/help/phpstorm/symfony-twig.html#debugging-twig-templates), it looks like it should be easy to debug using [Zero-configuration debugging](https://www.jetbrains.com/help/phpstorm/zero-configuration-debugging.html). Or could I have this wrong, are twig files like using underscore templates and can’t be used with the debugger tool? I have tried to see if there was a suggested set up in

```
bin/console debug

```

but I am learning as I go along and not sure if this is the direction to take. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
