This repository contains the client side of Chrome DevTools. It contains all the TypeScript and CSS code that runs the DevTools web app.
The source code is on chromium.googlesource.com.
The Chromium DevTools documentation tells you how to do these tasks:
The documentation also contains design guidelines and architecture documentation.
Other documentation:
There is a mirror of the DevTools frontend repository on GitHub.
The DevTools frontend is also available on npm as the chrome-devtools-frontend package. The package does not supply CJS modules or ES modules. Thus, it can be difficult to use this package in other tools. For an example of how to use it, see this file.
The version number of the npm package (for example, 1.0.373466) is the Chromium commit position of the latest frontend Git commit. The version number increases with each Chromium commit. But we publish the package only approximately one time each day.
