Developer

• Developer Information

• There are a couple of helpful improvements in Firefox DevTools making it easier to debug WebExtensions:

  • Are you using the webext command line tool to run and test your web extension? There is a new argument allowing you to also automatically open DevTools just in case you want to—for example, inspect the UI (bug).
    $ webext run --devtools
    Note: web-ext npm package needs to be >= 7.3.0
  • It’s now also simple to inspect popup windows (implemented by WebExtension) using DevTools (bug).
  • When you make changes in the source code of your WebExtension, you can easily reload it using a “Reload” button in the DevTools toolbox to see the changes (bug).
