Solid Devtools Extension

🚧 In early development. 🚧

It allows for visualizing and interacting with Solid's reactivity graph, as well as inspecting component state and hierarchy.

⚠️ IT REQUIRES A RUNTIME DEBUGGER LIBRARY TO WORK! ⚠️

The debugger is not bundled in with SolidJS at the moment, as the project is in early development and requires frequent changes.

See the guide on how to install it:
