Voltron is an extensible debugger UI toolkit written in Python that adds utility views (registers, disassembly, stack, memory, breakpoints, backtraces) to LLDB, GDB, VDB, and WinDbg. Views run in separate TTYs so users can compose a custom multi-window debugger interface around their existing CLI debugger.
Use cases
- show registers and disassembly in separate terminal windows while debugging with gdb
- build a custom multi-pane debugger UI for lldb
- view stack and memory alongside a CLI debugger
- extend windbg with extra views
- split debugger command output into highlighted tty views
When to choose
- you use a CLI debugger like GDB or LLDB and want richer visual views without leaving the terminal
- you want a customizable, scriptable debugger UI across macOS, Linux, and Windows
- you do reverse engineering or exploit development and want registers, stack, and disassembly at a glance
When to avoid
- you want a full graphical debugger replacing your CLI entirely
- you need a debugger itself rather than a UI layer on top of an existing one
- you need arm64 support with GDB, VDB, or WinDbg
