Debugging Brave UI

You can use the Chrome remote developer tools to debug aura UI views (Windows and Linux).

  1. Run src/out/Debug/brave --enable-ui-devtools
  2. Run chromium-browser --enable-ui-devtools (you can also use Chrome if you prefer)
  3. In the Chromium browser, go to chrome://inspect
  4. Click on Other and in the section entitled "UiDevToolsClient" click on the inspect link.

You can now use the DOM inspector and some of the other devtools.

Changing the port

You can also pass --enable-ui-devtools=<port> if you want to use a different port.
