In https://github.com/facebook/react/pull/30596 we've moved console patching to the global hook. Generally speaking, the patching happens even before React is loaded on the page. If browser DevTools were opened after when `console.error` or `console.warn` were called, the source script will be `hook.js`, because of the patching.  This is because ignore listing is not applied retroactively by Chrome DevTools. If you had it open before console calls, Hook script would be correctly filtered out from the stack:  I had hopes that the fix for https://issues.chromium.org/issues/345248263 will also apply ignore listing retroactively, but looks like we need to open a separate feature request for the Chrome DevTools team. With these changes, if user attempts to open `hook.js` script, they are going to see this message:  |

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
