It seems to happen because the assets for some reason isn't registered:

I can see various controllers has Umbraco.Community.Contentment.Services.DevMode injected as devModeService, but I can't see where it is registered?

Okay, it seems to be a hidden feature, which even GitHub search can't find 😅

I think the missing registered services and controllers may be an issue with Smidge which are bundling the assets on Umbraco Cloud, but not locally. I have also noticed this started happening for my own controllers used the block custom views and this where the external login providers are missing: umbraco/Umbraco.Cloud.Issues#476 (comment)

Unfortunately, I haven't been able to reproduce this specific issue. I'll close the issue. Please feel free to re-open.

@leekelleher it may not be specific related to Contentment, but it seems if Smidge fails bundling some JS/CSS assets some later JS/CSS assets may not be registered as mentioned in bergmania/Bergmania.OpenStreetMap#14

In the scenario my controllers for custom block views wasn't registered at all because of some bundle/minifying issues in OpenStreetMap v3.3.0 (which has a updated autocomplete.js asset) ... I reverted back to v3.2.0 and everything was working again.

Not sure in which order JS/CSS assets are registered - maybe in alphabetical order?

It would probably be okay to fail bundling of this asset and log the exception, but not sure if it could avoid failing bundling the other assets - in the custom controllers and in Contentment package. But I guess this is a bug or enhancement in Smidge.
