However, users frequently report poor performance with larger components, lack of support for the $store feature and events, absence of a dark theme, and the perception that the extension is no longer maintained. Despite these cons, the extension remains a valued tool for many Alpine.js developers.

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

Very useful tool. The lack of dark theme to save the eyes only, that's why marked as 4, but shake the hand to developer anyway

Extension safety

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Alpine.js devtools requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
