Exception only when Debugging in VSCode

Summary

I’m getting this StopException when debugging in VSCode.
Need help, here are the details…

My .vscode/launch.json

{
    "name": "Streamlit: Current File",
    "type": "python",
    "request": "launch",
    "module": "streamlit",
    "env": {
        // any .env variables you may have
        "STREAMLIT_APP": "${file}",
        "STREAMLIT_ENV": "development",
    },
    "args": [
        "run",
        "${file}"
    ],
    "jinja": true,
    "justMyCode": true
}

Steps to Reproduce

Open app.py in VSCode and then Debug Streamlit: Current File
This occurs

Workaround

Running streamlit run app.py will work, but no debugging

Hi @rugufu
