It is quite challenging for the developers to use the debugging system if they don't have tools to help them. However, Joomla contains a tool to perform this job, which is known as "Debug System". It includes a plugin combined with an option in 'Joomla's Global Configuration', which can be used to turn to the debug system on or off.

Joomla debug system allows developers to see session information, profile information, memory usage, database queries, log messages, and some other useful information. In this article, you will learn how to enable the debug system and access debug information in Joomla.
