Debug is a popular utility module for adding debugging statements to JavaScript code. It provides a simple way to log debug messages to the console based on namespaces, allowing developers to enable or disable specific debug output as needed. Debug is lightweight, easy to use, and widely adopted in the Node.js ecosystem for troubleshooting and monitoring code execution.

Compared to console.log statements, Debug offers more control and flexibility in managing debug output across different parts of an application. It helps developers identify and fix issues efficiently by providing detailed information during development and testing.
