## Debugging {#declarative-debugging}

Use `nix-shell -I nixpkgs=/some/dir/nixpkgs -A emscriptenPackages.libz` and from there you can go trough the individual steps. This makes it easy to build a good `unit test` or list the files of the project.

1. `nix-shell -I nixpkgs=/some/dir/nixpkgs -A emscriptenPackages.libz`
2. `cd /tmp/`
3. `unpackPhase`
4. cd libz-1.2.3
5. `configurePhase`
6. `buildPhase`
7. ... happy hacking...
