Firefox [finally supports `ExecutionWorld.MAIN`](https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1736575) in content scripts, which means we can migrate the browser extension to Manifest V3. This PR also removes a bunch of no longer required explicit branching for Firefox case, when we are using Manifest V3-only APIs. We are also removing XMLHttpRequest injection, which is no longer needed and restricted in Manifest V3. The new standardized approach (same as in Chromium) doesn't violate CSP rules, which means that extension can finally be used for apps running in production mode.
This is the source code for the React DevTools browser extension.
Installation
The easiest way to install this extension is as a browser add-on:
Local development
You can also build and install this extension from source.
Prerequisite steps
DevTools depends on local versions of several NPM packages1 also in this workspace. You'll need to either build or download those packages first.
1 Note that at this time, an experimental build is required because DevTools depends on the createRoot API.
To install all necessary dependencies, run the following command from the root of the repository:
yarn install
Build from source
To build dependencies from source, run the following command from the root of the repository:
