Alpine.js devtools

"Alpine.js not detected"

Apparently this is no longer working. No AlpineJS tab is showing in Developer's Tools, which is a shame, because it'd be a great help.

It does not detect any of my components

Performance... who? 🤔

At first glance, it looks great. However, once you start building larger Alpine components, the extension locks up the browser due to extremely poor performance. It eventually gets the job done, but I find myself waiting *minutes* sometimes just to expand an element in the extension. It's not very usable for me, and I'll be looking for alternative options.

The development tools are disappointingly basic, restricted to just managing component state with no support for stores or events, and they lack the ability to inspect what's registered globally. Even these basic features perform mediocrely – the tools often run slow and require frequent restarts. The user interface is also uninspiring. What's more concerning is that there appears to be no ongoing development or improvement. There hasn't been a single update in the past two years.

Before donating I want to actually see if it works... not having access to the stores tab is a uninstall from me right away.

It work fine if your component don't have big objects (otherwise it's slow to navigate the tree), still missing $store data from alpine V3
