+### GDB
+
+You can debug Mewz with GDB. When you run Mewz with QEMU, it listens on port 12345 for GDB. You can connect to it by just running GDB at the root of the repository as `.gdbinit` is already configured.
+
+```sh
+zig build -Dapp-obj=<path to the object file generated by Wasker> run
+# In another terminal
+gdb
+```
+
+`zig build debug` command prevent Mewz from booting up until GDB connects to it. This is useful when you want to debug the boot process.
+
+```sh
+zig build -Dapp-obj=<path to the object file generated by Wasker> debug
+# In another terminal
+gdb
+```
+
+### Run integration tests
 
 ```sh
 zig bulid -Dtest=true run
 ```
