Is there a way to print out variable values into the VS Code's variable section or print it to the console? The variable section is always empty and the watch section is always returning 'not available' massage for variables when running a script.

I don't think so. 🤔 🤔

Look at your screenshot

You probably simply evaluate the script

Are you on the latest version of the VS Code ExtendScript extension? Variables will only be updated when hitting a breakpoint, but $.writeln() should show up in the terminal.
