Sebastian Markbåge 7513996f20 [DevTools] Unify by using ReactFunctionLocation type instead of Source (#33955)
In RSC and other stacks now we use a lot of `ReactFunctionLocation` type
to represent the location of a function. I.e. the location of the
beginning of the function (the enclosing line/col) that is represented
by the "Source" of the function. This is also what the parent Component
Stacks represents.

As opposed to `ReactCallSite` which is what normal stack traces and
owner stacks represent. I.e. the line/column number of the callsite into
the next function.

We can start sharing more code by using the `ReactFunctionLocation` type
to represent the component source location and it also helps clarify
which ones are function locations and which ones are callsites as we
start adding more stack traces (e.g. for async debug info and owner
stack traces).

This is the source code for the React DevTools browser extension.

Installation

The easiest way to install this extension is as a browser add-on:

Local development

You can also build and install this extension from source.

Prerequisite steps

DevTools depends on local versions of several NPM packages1 also in this workspace. You'll need to either build or download those packages first.

1 Note that at this time, an experimental build is required because DevTools depends on the createRoot API.

To install all necessary dependencies, run the following command from the root of the repository:

yarn install

Build from source

To build dependencies from source, run the following command from the root of the repository:

yarn build-for-devtools

Download from CI

To use the latest build from CI, run the following commands starting from the root of the repository:

cd scripts/release
yarn install
./download-experimental-build.js

Build steps

Once the above packages have been built or downloaded, you can build the extension by running:

cd packages/react-devtools-extensions/

yarn build:chrome # => packages/react-devtools-extensions/chrome/build
yarn run test:chrome # Test Chrome extension

yarn build:firefox # => packages/react-devtools-extensions/firefox/build
yarn run test:firefox # Test Firefox extension

yarn build:edge # => packages/react-devtools-extensions/edge/build
yarn run test:edge # Test Edge extension
