Pwndbg is a fast, simple and lightweight tool for modern debugging. It improves debugging experience with the strength of GDB for low-level software developers, hardware hackers, reverse engineers, and exploit developers. It provides features crucial for efficient debugging in the world of low-level programming. Vanilla GDB is terrible to use for reverse engineering and exploit development. Typing x/g30x $esp is not fun, and does not confer much information. The year is 2024 and GDB still lacks a real hexdump command! GDB's syntax is arcane and difficult to approach. Windbg users are completely lost when they occasionally need to bump into GDB.
