In 1:50, something like that :
How the teacher is seeing the that view par is = to the reverse obj? I dont get it please help with this, thanks in advance.
Same as the options, how did the teacher get that the option is the original obj?
I understand how to fix it from the app.js but I dont get it, how he got this from the response.js?

Treehouse TeacherMy apologies!
It looks as though he's utilizing the step into button here when he's currently paused on line 41 for response.render.
The render method is created by Express and you can see it opens up the file response.js which comes with Express.
Since we called response.render('reverse', {reversed});, we're passing in 'reverse' as our view we want to render.
So back in response.js it's parameter, which is named view by Express, now currently holds the string 'reverse' as it's value. He sees a brief tip pop up when hovering over the parameter that shows it's value, and while in the Debug Console, he's able to type in the variables he wants to see the values for.
While he's there, he realizes that only the reversed object key/value was there, knowing that there should have been an original key/value pair as well, therefore he adds it.
I hope this breaks it down a bit better and I hope I understood your question correctly this time

Treehouse TeacherHey there Gal Parselany !
If you head back to the 2nd video in this Workshop, you'll see that you get that view by clicking the bug icon on the left side of the screen within VS Code. It looks slightly different now as it's a smaller bug in front of a right-faced (play button) triangle.
Then, inside of the video this was posted on, he's using the Debug Console at the bottom of the screen. If you open up a terminal (CMD+`) or (CTRL+`) you'll see it as a tab option next to Terminal.

Full Stack JavaScript Techdegree Graduate 26,281 PointsI mean when the teacher say "view", when he says that the option parameter in the function is equal to the view in the response.js? not the debug view, but thanks for this explnation aswell.
