Developer

Developer Information

There have been numerous improvements to the Debugger's "Search in files" feature (also known as "Project search"):

• The panel has been moved to a regular side panel, which allows you to keep the results list visible while opening scripts in the editor;
• Results from minified and pretty-printed tabs, as well as matches from the node_modules folder, are displayed;
• Results from ignored files are hidden; and
• Glob patterns and search modifiers are also supported, making it possible to execute case-sensitive or regex searches on specific parts of your project. Additional features include support for pretty printing inline scripts in HTML files and column breakpoints in pretty printed sources.

It is now possible to override a JavaScript file in the debugger. In the Debugger, under the Sources tree, you can use the "Add script override" context menu entry. This action will download the file onto your machine, allowing you to edit it. After reloading the page, the local file will be loaded instead of the original script (indicated by a purple icon when a file is overridden).

Web Platform

• Module scripts can now import other ES module scripts on worklets.
• Firefox 113 includes new CSS functionality, including improved support for the color (level 4) specification (such as the lab(), lch(), oklab(), oklch(), and color() functions) and the scripting media query.
• Firefox 113 adds support for a number of WebRTC features for improved interoperability: RTCMediaSourceStats, RTCPeerConnectionState, RTCPeerConnectionStats ("peer-connection" RTCStatsType), RTCRtpSender.setStreams(), and RTCSctpTransport.
• The forced-color-adjust property is now supported, allowing authors to opt an element out of color changes in Forced Color Mode for improved readability where the automatically-picked contrasting colors are not ideal.
