💡 Notice

• Only available in development mode.

• Only support 3.0+.

• Currently only supports single-instance applications (multi-instance support is coming soon).

• Doesn't support SSR (If you're using Nuxt, use nuxt/devtools directly).

• The plugin follows 's devtools configuration, so if you have configured the hide option, it will also be applied in this plugin. e.g.

  // This instance will be ignored by the plugin.
  createApp({
    render: () => h(App),
    devtools: {
      hide: true,
    },
  })
