Performance

• 🚀️ Around 50% faster startup time, thanks to a new clone implementation based on fast-copy. Vuex recording & state loading also faster than 5.3.1.
• Vuex: dynamic debounce

Fixed

• Clone: handle DOM objects, fixes Illegal invocation error
• Vuex: overflowing mutation label, closes #1090
• Vuex: remove horizontal padding transition
• Vuex: use a special object key for modules, closes #1098
• Router: format redirect and alias in tree, closes #1027

Performance

🚀️ This release should be much faster for huge applications, especially with very large Vuex stores. In my tests on a real application with a gigantic store, the Vuex tab is 6 times faster to be up-to-date and responsive after a sequence of mutations than 5.3.0. Thanks Jumpstart for the help diagnosing performance issues.

• StateInspector: limit number of root fields
• Vuex: freeze getters & modules
• Vuex: batch mutation insert
• Vuex: optimize autoload
• Revert keep-alive to significantly reduce memory usage, also made Vuex tab draw faster to offset the cost of this revert
• Optimized time-slicing

Fixed

• Vuex: last inspected state should apply filters/grouping
• Vuex: fallback for store modules namespace map (#1095)
• Browser toolbar popup style (#1096)
• DataField: should not expand by default if too many values if custom

New

• Group vuex getters by modules (+ setting):

• Inspect a specific vuex module:

Type and use [Tab] and [Enter] to select a module even faster:

Fixed

• Vuex: wrap getters in custom store details too
• Loading animation: dark theme background
• Router tab tooltips
• Optimized scroll to inspected item

New

• Loading animation:

• Greyscale when disconnected:

• Error messages are displayed in the state inspectors for Error objects:

Improved

• Performance improvements when switching tabs
• Optimized scroll to inspected item in history panes
• Auto refresh if no components -- your application should now appear even if it takes time to mount

Fixed

• SharedData: master/slave init, closes #1028 -- fixes a range of issues related to some settings not being applied correctly, including 'Editable props'
• Vuex: automatically wrap getters in try...catch before serializing the store state
• Improved and more resilient handshake -- this means the devtools should successfully connect to the page more often; please post an issue if you see the devtools not connecting (unresponsive after a page refresh for example)
• Electron: intro overlay was below some elements
• Electron: wait a little bit on disconnect before showing intro
