Releases: oddcelot/lit-devtools
Release list
v0.24.0
Your components now describe themselves: the plugin writes a Custom Elements
Manifest from your sources, in the build, the dev server or from
lit-devtools manifest, and the details pane reads more of what a component
declares, dispatches and inherits. A language server brings the same
knowledge to your editor, and @oddsquad/lit-devtools installs the plugin,
the server and its Oxlint rules as one package. Nothing needs action to
upgrade.
Added
- Generate a Custom Elements Manifest from your components. Set
manifest: trueandvite buildemitscustom-elements.jsonbeside the
bundle, the dev server serves it live, andwritekeeps a copy in the
project for editors and Storybook, with no separate analyzer to set up. lit-devtools manifestwrites a Custom Elements Manifest from the
command line. It reads every script undersrcand writes
custom-elements.json, ready for aprepublishOnlyscript or CI. It uses
your Vite config's aliases, and in a project without one resolves imports
the way Node and TypeScript do,tsconfig.jsonpaths included.- A language server for Lit components.
@oddsquad/lit-language-server
completes your components' tags, attributes, properties and events in
templates, shows their docs on hover, types event handlers and reports one
that doesn't fit its event, in Zed or any LSP editor. Configure it with
litPlugin({languageServer}). - Install everything as
@oddsquad/lit-devtools. One package brings the
plugin (@oddsquad/lit-devtools/vite,/astro), the language server and
the Oxlint rules (/oxlint); the separate packages stay for a project that
wants one part. - Components inherit docs from the library elements they extend. A
component built on, say, Web Awesome's badge now lists the badge's
properties, slots and events in the details pane, read from Web Awesome's
own Custom Elements Manifest. - Components show the events they dispatch, even without
@fires. An
event your class sends withthis.dispatchEvent(new CustomEvent('pick'))
now appears under Events in the details pane, typedCustomEvent. - The manifest says what each event carries. An event dispatched as
new CustomEvent('add-to-cart', {detail: {id: this.productId}})is listed
asCustomEvent<{id: string}>, also when a@firestag documents it
without a type. - Component docs read
@attr,@prop,@defaultand@tag. JSDoc
written for the Custom Elements Manifest analyzer now shows in the details
pane: attributes and properties the code doesn't declare, defaults it
doesn't initialize, and the tag of a class registered elsewhere. - Components show the defaults their constructor sets. A
this.variant = 'neutral'in the constructor now shows as the default of
variantin the details pane, even when the property comes from a library
base class such as Web Awesome's. - Vanilla custom elements show their observed attributes. An element
that listsstatic observedAttributes = ['mode']now showsmodeunder
Attributes in the details pane, described by an@attrtag if it has one.
Oxlint plugin 0.1.0
The first release: the problems the Lit language server shows in your editor
can now fail a lint run. It reads your components the way the server does,
from your sources and your dependencies' Custom Elements Manifests, with the
same settings, and reports through Oxlint's own severities and comments.
Added
- Fail a lint run on the problems the editor shows. Extend
configs.recommendedfrom@oddsquad/oxlint-plugin-litin
oxlint.config.ts, or Vite+'slint, and a handler that doesn't fit its
event or a brokencsstemplate fails Oxlint, at the editor's severities. - Rules named so they don't clash.
lit-devtools/event-typeand
lit-devtools/csssit next to eslint-plugin-lit'slit/rules; turn one
off inrulesor silence a line with// oxlint-disable-next-line.
Language server 0.2.0
Templates now lead somewhere: go to a component's source from any tag,
attribute, property or event, and find every template that uses it. The same
completion, docs and navigation work in JSX, Astro and MDX. The problems it
reports can also fail a lint run, through @oddsquad/oxlint-plugin-lit.
Added
- Go to a component's source, and find where it's used. Go to
implementation or definition on a tag, attribute,.propertyor@event
in a template opens the class, field or dispatch that declares it, in a
base class when it's inherited; find references lists every template and
HTML file that uses it. - Lit components in JSX, Astro and MDX. Tags, props and events complete,
show their docs and lead to their source in.jsxand.tsxfiles, Astro
templates and MDX, readingsize="small",onsubmit-start={fn}and
Solid'son:/prop:the way React 19, Preact, Solid and Astro do.
v0.23.0
The Components panel now shows what a component keeps to itself: its
#private fields, readable and editable under the dev server, and the custom
states, form value and validity of a form-associated element. The tree no
longer has a Live switch; it stays live, holds still under the pointer and
paces itself on busy pages. The panel's rows, colours and fields got easier
to read and hit, and the docs run the examples live beside the panel. Nothing
needs action to upgrade.
Added
- The Components panel shows and edits a component's
#privatefields.
Under the dev server, a Private section after State lists each native
#privatefield as#namewith its live value. A string, number or
boolean has the same edit button as a property, kept as an override you can
switch off, pin across reloads or remove, and the component re-renders with
it. Agents read them throughlit_component-detailsand set them through
lit_set-prop. They come from thehmr.privateFieldsrewrite, so turning
that off hides them. - The Components details show custom states and form values. An element
that callsattachInternals()gets an Internals section with the states
:state()matches, the value it last passed tosetFormValue(), and its
validity and validation message, kept live as they change. Agents read the
same throughlit_component-details. - Try the examples live in the docs. The Demos page opens flame, Web
Awesome, Fernhouse, CSS, Tailwind, Forms and the tutorial's app running in
your browser with the DevTools panel under them, with nothing to boot and a
zoom control; StackBlitz is one switch away for editing their files.
Changed
- The live component tree keeps up with busy pages without slowing them.
A page that changes constantly still gets a fresh tree every so often,
rebuilds space themselves out by how long the last one took, and none run
while the Timeline is recording. - The Components toolbar sets Pick apart from the switches. Pick is a
crosshair beside the tag filter, and Flash and Anatomy, which stay on until
you turn them off, sit together as one group at the right. - Tree and list rows are easier to hit. Rows in the component tree and
the timeline list are 24px tall, the minimum target size WCAG asks for. - Element references and functions no longer share a colour. Tags and
element refs are teal, functions stay blue, in both colour schemes.
Fixed
- A link to a component opens its details even before the page is ready.
Opening the panel on#tab=components&component=Nbefore the page
connected, or before its components defined, no longer shows "This element
is no longer in the page" for an element that is there. - Settings' About shows the page's Lit even when opened first. A panel
opened on the Settings tab before the page connected said "lit: not
detected" until the tab was reopened; it now lists the page's Lit packages
as soon as the page connects. - Disabled fields no longer pass for empty ones. A disabled select or
input is dimmed, filled and dash-outlined with a not-allowed cursor, and the
tags of a multi-select read as live rather than greyed out. - The Lit tab's footer buttons work in a narrow panel. A long notice no
longer covers its own "Don't show again" or "Not now": the text is cut
short instead, and shows whole when you hover it.
Removed
- The Components tab's Live toggle is gone; the tree is always live. It
stays still while the pointer is over it, so the row under the pointer does
not move, and catches up when the pointer leaves. A tree paused in an
earlier version comes back live.
v0.22.0
The Lit DevTools now run in any server. createLitDevtools() serves the
panel from your app's own origin, without Vite or a second port, and docks it
in a drawer along the bottom of the page. An Elysia example puts it next to
server rendering on Bun, and a forms example shows form-associated elements
with :state(). The panel takes its colours, type and code font from the Lit
Design System, and agents can read the docs as Markdown. Nothing needs action
to upgrade.
Added
- The Lit DevTools in any server.
createLitDevtools()from
@oddsquad/vite-plugin-lit/devframegives a server without Vite (Elysia,
Hono,Bun.serve, a SvelteKit or Next.js route) one request handler for the
panel, its page script and its RPC on the app's own origin, with no
lit-devtools devprocess or second port. - The panel docks in the page. With
createLitDevtools(), a Lit button in
the corner opens the panel in a resizable drawer along the bottom of the
page, and picking an element opens it there instead of in another tab. It
reopens as you left it; passdock: falseto keep it a tab. - An Elysia example, without Vite. A guestbook that Elysia renders on Bun
with@lit-labs/ssr, streams, hydrates and keeps live over a WebSocket,
with a form that works before it hydrates. It shows the hydration traps to
avoid, attaches the standalone Lit DevTools, and builds into a single
executable. - A forms example. A text field, a switch and a star rating extend one
FormControlbase class and work in a plain<form>: they submit with
FormData, block submit while invalid, reset, and follow a disabled
fieldset. Each shows what it is doing as:state()custom states for CSS to
style on. - Every docs page has a Markdown copy. Append
index.mdto a page's
address, follow itsrel="alternate"link, or sendAccept: text/markdown
to get the page as Markdown, with Link headers pointing to llms.txt and the
sitemap. - An agent skill for the plugin. Agents that read Agent Skills Discovery
find it at/.well-known/agent-skills/on the docs site: setup, CSS
delivery, hot-patch failures and the DevTools MCP server in one file. - A setup prompt for coding agents. The Installation page has a prompt to
copy into your agent; it installs the plugin, adds it to the Vite config and
registers the types, then lists what it changed. - Browser agents can search and read the docs through WebMCP. In a
browser with WebMCP, the docs offersearch_docs,read_docs_pageand
open_docs_pagetools.
Changed
- The panel takes the Lit Design System's theme. Its colours, focus ring,
motion and type scale come from the same tokens as the docs, in both colour
schemes. Corners stay square; pills, status dots and the Timeline's layer
chips are round. - The panel sets code in Lilex. Values, source locations, timings and the
Timeline's lanes use the Lilex monospace instead of the system one. - The Updates count no longer looks like an error. The number on the
Updates tab is blue instead of red; the orange count on Components still
flags Lit warnings. - A lighter split between the tree and the details. The divider in the
Components view is a hairline that lights up blue under the pointer, and is
just as easy to drag. - The docs moved to vite-plugin-lit.oddsquad.dev. Links in the DevTools
panel, the README and the extension listing point there, and the old
oddcelot.github.io/vite-plugin-lit/ addresses redirect.
Fixed
- A re-created child keeps its own listeners and lookups. When a parent
edit makes Lit re-create a child,#privatearrow-function listeners and
fields the child sets inconnectedCallback, such as a form it looks up,
stay the new element's instead of being overwritten by the old one's. - Dark outlines and nulls are legible. In the dark scheme, unchecked
switches, inputs and outlined buttons have a visible outline, andnull
values in the Properties view no longer fade into the background. - The
./buildand./astro/*exports have types on JSR. JSR no longer
warns that these entry points have no type declarations, and installing the
package from JSR types them like the others.
v0.21.0
Lit Inspector now opens sources in your editor: on a page a Vite dev server
serves, even without the plugin, a component's defined and rendered
links open the file. Locations read shorter everywhere, by package and
version or relative to the project, and a library's component names the
module its manifest gives. The panel also follows sites that swap in a new
page body, such as webawesome.com. Nothing needs action to upgrade.
Added
- The extension opens sources in your editor on a Vite dev server. On a
page Vite serves, with or without the plugin, the defined and
rendered links open the file in your editor instead of only in Chrome's
Sources panel, and work in Firefox too. They use the plugin's endpoint when
it serves one, else Vite's own/__open-in-editor, under the page'sbase.
When the extension can't tell where the project is on disk, the bottom of
the Lit tab says so and offers Set project folder… for the site.
Changed
- Locations in dependencies name the package. A component from a
package reads as its name, version and path inside it, such as
@awesome.me/webawesome 3.14.0 › dist/chunks/chunk.js:11, instead of five
lines of pnpm store path; the full path is in the tooltip. - A package's component names its module. When the package ships a Custom
Elements Manifest, defined reads as the module and class it names, such
ascomponents/card/card.js (WaCard), instead of a bundler chunk. That
holds in the Vite panel and, for a manifest read from the site, in the
extension. - Project files read relative to the project. A location given as an
absolute path, such as Astro's for an element in.astromarkup, reads
src/pages/basics.astro:26, in the Vite panel and in the extension on a
Vite dev server; the full path is in the tooltip.
Fixed
- The panel follows sites that swap in a new page body. On a site that
navigates with Turbo Drive, such as webawesome.com, the Components tree
updates as you follow links, and the hover outline, update flashes and
element picker keep working. - Lit components with a closed shadow root show their children. The
Components tree lists what such a component renders, and Live follows
changes inside it, as the anatomy view already did. - Elements written in
.astromarkup show where they are rendered. The
rendered link, the source overlay and timeline events now point at the
.astrofile and line, where before those elements had no location at all. - The extension finds a decorated component on a Vite dev server. On a
page Vite serves without the plugin, defined pointed at the compiler's
decoratehelper instead of the file that declares the class.
v0.20.1
A patch of fixes: the Lit tab in Firefox DevTools works again after opening
blank since 0.19.0, server-rendered elements hydrate with the source overlay
on, and closing a panel tab always clears what it drew. Nothing needs action
to upgrade.
Fixed
- The Lit tab works in Firefox DevTools again. Since 0.19.0 it opened
blank in Firefox; it now shows the site's status and the inspector once the
site is enabled. - Server-rendered Lit elements hydrate with the source overlay on. An
element whose template renders another custom element no longer re-renders
in the browser with a warning about an edit that never happened, in Astro or
any other server rendering. - Closing a panel tab always clears what it drew on the page. The anatomy
overlay, outline and Live mode no longer outlive a panel tab that closed too
fast to say so, or crashed. - The panel stops filling the console with warnings. Opening it no longer
prints Web Awesome'ssize="small" is deprecatedwarnings, and a panel in a
tab of its own, at/__lit/or in Firefox's DevTools, no longer warns that
the in-page channel has no handshake targets.
v0.20.0
The plugin now runs in Astro. lit() server-renders and hydrates Lit
components with no other renderer, and litDevtools() brings hot patching and
the Lit panel, opened from Astro's dev toolbar. The Components tab reads
hydration as a state and stops labelling other libraries' elements. The
DevTools now warn when the Lit Inspector extension and the plugin share a page,
and both work there. Nothing needs action to upgrade.
Added
- The plugin runs in Astro, with the Lit panel in the dev toolbar. Add
litDevtools()from@oddsquad/vite-plugin-lit/astroto your integrations:
Lit components hot-patch in place, hydrated or not, and the Lit logo in
Astro's dev toolbar opens the panel on the page you are on.
LIT_PLUGIN_TIMELINE=falseturns the panel off, and thetimelineoption
wins over it. - Lit components render and hydrate in Astro with no other renderer.
lit()from@oddsquad/vite-plugin-lit/astroserver-renders Lit
components, hydrates them with their array and object props, keeps a
defer-hydrationyou wrote until you remove it, and needs no hydrate imports
in your pages. Components nested in another's shadow root hydrate after a
view transition too. - Resize the Lit window in Astro's dev toolbar. Drag the grip in its top
corner to make it bigger or smaller; the size sticks across page loads, and a
double click on the grip resets it. The window lines up with where the
toolbar is docked. - The DevTools warn when two runtimes share a page. With the Lit Inspector
extension enabled on a dev server that already runs the plugin, the console
and the Components tab now say that two runtimes are loaded and that the
extension should be off for that site, instead of the picker silently doing
nothing.
Changed
- Hydration state reads as a state. A server-rendered component that has
hydrated is now marked hydrated instead of SSR, and deferred, not
hydrated and hydrated show as pills in the Components tree and details,
with a drop icon that is empty until the element hydrates and filled once it
has. - Custom elements from other libraries sit in the tree unmarked. The muted
not Lit chip is gone from their rows and the details head, so wrappers like
Astro's islands no longer crowd the tree with labels; the details pane still
says why they have no properties. - A component that never upgraded shows one chip, not two. One the server
rendered was marked both not upgraded and not hydrated, as if hydration
were still coming; it now carries only not upgraded, whose tooltip says it
still shows the HTML the server sent.
Fixed
- The Lit Inspector extension works on a dev server that runs the plugin.
Enabled for such a site, Pick did nothing and threw in the console, and Vite
DevTools lost the page. The extension's runtime now serves the page and the
plugin's shares it, so both panels show the tree and Pick works from either. - The link printed with the DevTools code opens the Lit panel. Without the
Vite DevTools hub, the#devframe_otplink in the terminal opened your app
instead of the panel at/__lit/, so you had to type the code; it now opens
the panel, approved. - The Lit panel connects on StackBlitz without Vite DevTools. In a
WebContainer the panel the plugin serves at/__lit/used to be refused by
its own socket and never show the page; it now admits StackBlitz's origins.
v0.19.0
Lit rendered on the server with @lit-labs/ssr now works with the plugin:
edits hot-patch hydrated components and reach the next server render, shared
sheets arrive styled, and the Components tab shows where hydration stands. A
new SSR example covers dev, production builds and StackBlitz. Lit Inspector
gains a Lit tab in the Elements panel and reads Custom Elements Manifests from
more places, and the DevTools flag double renders. Nothing needs action to
upgrade.
Added
- Server-rendered Lit works in the dev server. With
@lit-labs/ssrin
your Vite server, an edit patches hydrated components in place and the next
server render uses the new code instead of failing because the tag is
already defined. A?css-sheetrenders into the declarative shadow root, so
the page arrives styled, and its edits restyle hydrated components. A
defer-hydrationcomponent edited before it wakes renders the new template,
and a page whose HTML predates an edit renders that component once in the
browser instead of failing to hydrate. The new SSR guide shows the setup, and
Troubleshooting covers the dock's socket in middleware mode. - The Components tab shows hydration state. A server-rendered component
is marked deferred whiledefer-hydrationholds it back, not hydrated
until its first update, and SSR the moment it hydrates, in the tree and the
details pane. - An SSR example, on StackBlitz too. Open it from the README or the docs'
Demos page: the counter arrives as server HTML, hydrates, and keeps its
count through an edit, with the DevTools dock connected. - Server-rendered pages in production builds, with the Lit panel. The SSR
guide and example cover a production build served without Vite: shared
?css-sheetstyles arrive inlined, and the Lit panel attaches through
lit-devtools devwith each element's hydration state. - The Lit panel works without Vite DevTools. With
timeline: trueand no
DevTools(), the dev server serves the panel at/__lit/and prints its
address, instead of only warning that the panel never mounted. - A Lit tab in the Elements panel. The browser extension adds a Lit tab to
the Elements sidebar, beside Styles and Computed, showing the properties,
state, slots, parts and source links of the Lit element you select there. - Double renders are flagged. An update that a component's own previous
update scheduled, usually becauseupdated()set a property, is marked
re-rendered in the Updates tab and2×in the Timeline list, and
lit_update-summaryreports it asselfCaused. The Components tab's
Warnings count how many times the recording shows an element re-rendering
itself, also under a production build. - The Components tab counts dispatched events. With the Custom events
layer on, a Dispatched section lists how many times the selected element
dispatched each event type during the recording. - Properties show which class declared them. For a component that extends
a base class or uses mixins, the Properties and State tables group their
rows under the declaring class, the element's own first. - Component docs include members from your mixins. For a component
written asextends Sized(Base), the Components tab lists what your
project'sSizedmixin adds, marked as inherited from it, and still reaches
Basepast a package mixin such asSignalWatcher. - Agents can set component properties. The new
lit_set-proptool sets a
reactive property, or a field inside the object it holds, on a live element
and answers with the element's details afterwards. Agent edits land as
overrides in the panel, where you can switch them off or clear them. - Lit Inspector can pause on an update or a property change. Arm update
or render on the selected element, or the pause toggle on one of its
properties, and the page stops in the debugger when it happens. - Lit Inspector finds more Custom Elements Manifests. When a page links
none, the Lit tab looks for everycustom-elements.jsonbeside the page's
scripts and offers them, so Web Awesome's docs show component documentation
with one click. Manifests on another site, such as a CDN, work once Chrome
is granted access to it, through an Allow access button for a linked one. - Choose the manifests Lit Inspector reads. The Settings tab's Component
docs section lists the page's linked manifests, the ones found and the ones
you add by URL, such as/dist/custom-elements.json. Each can be switched
off, ignored and reset, or moved up and down; the first switched-on one that
describes a component supplies its docs. - The extension shows where an element is rendered. On a page without the
Vite plugin, the details pane's rendered row names the template tag that
created an element, found by the template's text in the page's sources, and
in Chrome a click opens it in the Sources panel. - Read component docs without hovering. Turn on "inline descriptions"
under Components in the Settings tab, and every documented property,
attribute, slot and part shows its description under its row. unoSheet()works with presetWind4. Passpreflights: trueto keep
Wind4's theme variables and@propertyrules in the shared sheet; drop the
reset at the preset withpresetWind4({preflights: {reset: false}}).- Context consumers waiting for a provider say so. A subscribing consumer
that no provider has answered yet reads "waiting for a provider" instead of
linking to a provider that never answered it, and links as soon as a
ContextRoot replays its request.
Changed
- The Settings tab no longer lists env var names. Hints name the plugin
option alone, the reset button reads "Reset overrides", and a value set from
the environment still shows its "(env)" badge.
Fixed
- Hiding the panel clears what it drew on the page. Collapsing the dock,
closing DevTools with the browser extension, or closing a panel opened as
its own tab now takes down the anatomy overlay, hover outline and
breakpoints and stops Live, instead of leaving them until the page reloads.
The overlay comes back when the dock opens again. - Slotted context consumers link to the right provider. A consumer
slotted into a component whose shadow tree provides the context now links to
that provider, instead of to none or to one further out. - A provider's details follow a value set directly. Setting a context
provider's value withsetValue, without its host updating, refreshes the
selected provider's row right away instead of on its next update. - A component whose constructor threw is no longer called "not Lit". The
Components tab marks it not upgraded and says its constructor probably
threw, instead of claiming another library defined it. - The Anatomy "not rendered" list follows the page. A light child added
with a slot name the element doesn't have, or renamed to one, shows up
without reselecting the element. - The Updates tab's equal-content badge shows its icon again. The badge
that flags a property changed to a new reference with equal content rendered
as a bare number. lit-devtools mcpfinds dev servers behind your own HTTP server. When
Vite runs in middleware mode with your server passed in, the plugin
registers that server's real port instead of probing 5173 and warning that
discovery is unavailable.
v0.18.0
Shared stylesheets now work with utility frameworks: UnoCSS utilities become
one adopted sheet through unoSheet(), and Tailwind v4 classes you add in dev
reach a ?css-sheet with their shadows, rings and gradients intact. Builds got
leaner: vite build no longer loads the dev tooling, and what the CSS queries
emit carries no HMR code. The Components tab gains a Request update button, and
the console gets $lit and Store as global variable. Nothing needs action to
upgrade.
Added
- UnoCSS utilities can be one shared sheet across shadow roots.
unoSheet()from@oddsquad/vite-plugin-lit/unowrites the utilities your
source uses to a.cssfile; import it with?css-sheetand every component
adopts the sameCSSStyleSheet, swapped in place when a new class shows up. - A Tailwind example. Three components share Tailwind v4 utilities as one
adopted sheet, each counting its renders: change the brand colour and
everything recolours in place, add a class and the shared sheet gains it,
with shadows, rings and gradients working inside shadow roots. - Production builds can leave the dev tooling out entirely. Use
litCss()
from@oddsquad/vite-plugin-lit/buildforvite buildand HMR, the source
overlay and DevTools are never imported into the build; it keeps the CSS
queries,cssliteral minification andcssSheetBuild. - Request update from the Components tab. A button beside the tag name
callsrequestUpdate()on the selected element, and the Updates and Timeline
tabs name the DevTools as that update's cause. $litin the console is the selected component. Like$0in Elements,
it returns the element selected in the Components tab, in every host, so you
can call its methods or read its fields directly.- Store a property as a global variable. A button on each Properties,
State and Instance row puts the live value intemp1,temp2… on the page
and logs it in the console, so you can work with the object itself instead
of its preview.
Changed
- Builds carry no dev code, with no config change. With plain
litPlugin(),vite buildno longer imports HMR, the source overlay or the
DevTools panel, and a?css-sheetor?hmr-urlimport compiles without the
hot-swap callback and the dev-server fetch rewrite.urlSheet()and
devCacheBust()fold their dev branches away when minified. - Edits and overrides show up as the update's cause. Updates you cause by
editing or overriding a property in the Components tab now read "after edit
in DevTools" or "after override in DevTools" in the Updates and Timeline
tabs, instead of having no cause. ?css-sheetonvirtual:uno.cssnow tells you what to do instead.
Importing a virtual CSS module with?css-sheetor?hmr-urlwarns that
there is no file behind it and points tounoSheet(), instead of failing
later with an error that doesn't mention the query.
Fixed
@propertyrules in a?css-sheetnow apply inside shadow roots.
Browsers ignore@propertyin a shadow root, so properties a shared sheet
registered had no initial value there, and utilities built on them
(Tailwind's shadows, rings, transforms and gradients) rendered nothing. The
plugin now registers them on the document as well, and a build only ships
that code for sheets that have such a rule.- Tailwind classes you add in dev reach the shared
?css-sheet. A class
written in a component now lands in the sheet every adopter shares and swaps
in place; before, only edits to the CSS file itself did. In dev the sheet is
built from the file's?inlinetext, so it no longer waits on a fetch
either. - Component docs stay current. Changing a component's JSDoc updates its
About, property and event descriptions on the next hot patch, and a Custom
Elements Manifest an analyzer rewrites shows up within a second or so, both
without selecting another tag and coming back. - Sites that enforce Trusted Types keep working with the extension on. On
a page whose CSP allows only Lit's ownlit-htmlpolicy, enabling Lit
Inspector stopped the page's components from rendering. The injected runtime
no longer creates that policy, and its picker no longer needs one. - Rendered at links into
index.htmlopen the right line. In Chrome's
extension, an element written inindex.htmlnow opens that file at its
line in the Sources panel, instead of Vite's inline-script module at the top. - SVG files on an enabled site open cleanly. Viewing an
.svgfile
directly on a site where Lit Inspector is on no longer logs a
configure is not a functionerror. - Unminified builds no longer print your project's absolute path. With
build.minify: false, a?css-sheetor?hmr-urlimport's region comment
named the css file by its full path on disk; it now names it relative to the
project root.
