Laravel 8 - Jetstream + inertia.js - Vue dev tools not working

I have a project using Laravel 8, inertia js, Vue.js and webpack. The VueJs chrome dev tools aren't working for this project. It keeps showing as not detected, i've tried restarting it, removing and readding the dev tools. I've checked in both dev and production, no vuejs detected. Any help would be great.

App.js

require("./bootstrap");

// Import modules...
import { createApp, h } from "vue";
import {
    App as InertiaApp,
    plugin as InertiaPlugin,
} from "@inertiajs/inertia-vue3";

const el = document.getElementById("app");

createApp({
    render: () =>
        h(InertiaApp, {
            initialPage: JSON.parse(el.dataset.page),
            resolveComponent: (name) => require(`./Pages/${name}`).default,
        }),
})
    .mixin({ methods: { route } })
    .use(InertiaPlugin)
    .mount(el);

wepack.mix.js

const mix = require("laravel-mix");

mix.js("resources/js/app.js", "public/js")
    .vue()
    .postCss("resources/css/app.css", "public/css", [
        require("postcss-import"),
        require("tailwindcss"),
        require("autoprefixer"),
    ])
    .webpackConfig(require("./webpack.config"));

if (mix.inProduction()) {
    mix.version();
} else {
    mix.sourceMaps(false, "source-map");
}

app.blade.php

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="{{ str_replace('_', '-', app()->getLocale()) }}">
    <head>
        <meta charset="utf-8">
        <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">

Solution

  • In case anyone has the same issue, the chrome extenstion also needs the vuejs devtools dev version to work. But this encountered another issue. Vue not appearing in the dev/inspect tool. Removing a chrome theme and setting this to default brought this back.
