Get an alpha DevTools extension published #250

Closed bob2517 closed 8 months ago

The ACSS DevTools was working on version one, and then I decided to leave work on it while I was completing the component functionality. That was a while ago, and I got carried away with adding new functionality.

Now that there is an ability to separate out components into separate files, it is apparent that debugging complex SPAs with numerous components could be tricky without a DevTools type feature to inspect events attached to elements and get the overall view of everything that is happening, and to be able to know which file contains which event. DevTools provides that functionality.

So I'm going to do an alpha version which won't be published officially, and that will be an upgrade on the original version one of the ACSS DevTools. I was going to rewrite it, but it's going to be quicker just to upgrade what is there for the moment. I'll rewrite or re-factor it later on. The code itself isn't very pretty at the moment.

This won't be on the Chrome store - it will be a manual download, because the old version uses ACSS and ACSS fails the Chrome Store requirements, due to the sheer power it unleashes \. There may be a VS code version, which I need to look at.

This will get started on after 2.10.0.
