+If you want to debug into the Durable Task or any of the .NET bits, follow the instructions below:
 
 1. If you would like to debug a custom local WebJobs extension package then create the custom package, place it in a local directory, and then run `func extensions install --package Microsoft.Azure.WebJobs.Extensions.DurableTask --version <VERSION>`. If you update the version while debugging and the new version doesn't get picked up, then try running `func extensions install` to get the new changes.
 3. Make sure the Durable Functions Java debugging is setup already and the debugger has started the `func` process.
