Hi!

Is there any plan for supporting https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/Extending_the_developer_tools in the near future ?

Thanks for the good job !

That's always an option. It's been a while, but I think I was holding off to see if there was any interest, and to make sure that some of the bugs/snags were worked out before adding more facets to the app.

If you needed something in the short term, I believe you only need to:

Add a new page to vue.config.js similar to how the others are added
Clone another page into /src/devtools/
Specify the devtools key into manifest.json using the output name from your page in vue.config.js

Yes that's exactly what I did. I managed to merge devtools features with other stuff already generated by the plugin. Anyway it'd be great to keep improving the plugin with new APIs support.

Thanks!
