AI product readChrome DevTools extension for debugging and inspecting Vue.js applications
Provides developers with specialized tools to inspect, debug, and profile Vue.js applications directly in Chrome DevTools, which is not possible with standard browser DevTools alone
1. Install extension and navigate to a page with Vue.js. 2. Extension automatically detects Vue.js via content scripts (prepare.js runs at document_start in MAIN world). 3. Extension popup shows Vue detection status (enabled/disabled/Nuxt/VitePress). 4. Open Chrome DevTools and find the Vue panel. 5. Inspect component tree, view component state/props/events, debug application state. 6. Use graph visualization to understand component relationships.
Detects Vue.js presence on web pages and shows detection status in extension popupAdds dedicated Vue panel to Chrome DevTools for component inspectionDisplays component tree hierarchy with parent-child relationshipsInspects component state, props, computed properties, and emitted eventsSupports Vue 2 (with migration guide to Vue 3) and Vue 3 applicationsDetects and provides specialized icons for Nuxt and VitePress frameworks
- Target users
- Vue.js developers / Frontend developers building with Vue.js framework / Developers using Nuxt.js or VitePress / Frontend developers debugging Vue component hierarchies and state
- The extension source code is minified, making some analysis less precise. However, the core architecture is clear from entry files and manifest.
- Cannot verify if external Vue.js ecosystem tools (like Vue DevTools desktop app or VS Code extension) have paid features, but this Chrome extension itself is completely free.
- The large vis.js graph visualization library (1.9MB) contains many false positive keyword matches that are part of the library code, not the extension's own functionality.
MonetizationNo paid features detected
Vue.js devtools is a completely free, open-source developer tool (GitHub: vuejs/devtools). There are no payment mechanisms, subscription models, feature gating, or upgrade prompts anywhere in the codebase. The 'pro' keyword matches are all false positives hitting Vue component 'props' properties and Object.prototype methods. The extension has no integration with payment platforms, no billing APIs, and no premium feature indicators.

- Reason
- Vue.js devtools is a local browser extension that works entirely within Chrome DevTools without requiring any user authentication or account creation. The extension operates by injecting scripts into pages to detect Vue.js instances and communicate with a devtools panel. No login UI, authentication flows, or account management features exist in the codebase. The keyword matches for 'token', 'session', 'account', and 'auth' are all false positives from the vis.js graph visualization library (HammerJS touch sessions), DOM token lists, MIT license text, and mathematical comments like 'accounting for the positions'.
doesn't work with vue3
很好用的插件,不过什么时候能兼容下vue3.0的调试,现在只能检测2.0的版本
its not working with project created with vue cli !!!!!!!!!!!!
赶快支持vue3啊
Sometimes it detects Vue, sometimes not, its more like a gamble weather you will be lucky or not. It's hard to trust Vue, when your own recommended by official documentation extension work only 50% time
Keeps saying Vue.js not detected! This doesn't work atall. even on the vuejs.org site.
Vue 3 has been declared stable and advised as the version to be used for any new project. However, several months down the line this extension doesn't support Vue 3 yet. How can you expect people to take Vue 3 seriously if they can't even use the dev tools to debug their apps? I've been building custom alpha versions of this extensions for a while now in order to debug Vue 3 apps, but I'm quite sick of going through these hackish processes while the stable version of this extension hasn't been updated for more than a year. Vue is a great framework, but the lack of attention given to the developer tools is seriously pushing people away from it.
Not compatible with Vue 3...
这个工具使用vue3.0无法启动啊?大家遇到这个问题了吗
请问下什么时候支持vue 3
