+ # ng-form-devtools
2
+
3
+ `ng-form-devtools` helps you inspect Angular forms during development.
4
+ It adds runtime form tracking to your app, creates structured snapshots, and provides the bridge for an upcoming Chrome DevTools experience focused on Angular forms.
5
+
6
+ ## Current Status
7
+
8
+ `ng-form-devtools` is currently a work in progress. Feedback, ideas, and bug reports are very welcome.
9
+ The API and overall behavior are planned to be considered stable starting with `v1.0.0`.
10
+
11
+ The Chrome DevTools integration is also still evolving. A dedicated Chrome plugin is planned and this package already contains the foundation for that upcoming extension.
12
+
13
+ ## Install
14
+
15
+ ```bash
16
+ npm install ng-form-devtools
17
+ ```
18
+
19
+ ## Minimal Setup
20
+
21
+ ```ts
22
+ import { provideExperimentalZonelessChangeDetection } from '@angular/core';
23
+ import { bootstrapApplication } from '@angular/platform-browser';
24
+ import { provideFormDevtools } from 'ng-form-devtools';
25
+
26
+ bootstrapApplication(AppComponent, {
27
+ providers: [
28
+ provideExperimentalZonelessChangeDetection(),
29
+ provideFormDevtools({ bridge: 'window-message' })
30
+ ]
31
+ });
32
+ ```
33
+
34
+ Track a form inside an injection context:
35
+
36
+ ```ts
37
+ import { Component } from '@angular/core';
38
+ import { FormBuilder, ReactiveFormsModule } from '@angular/forms';
39
+ import { track } from 'ng-form-devtools';
40
+
41
+ @Component({
42
+ standalone: true,
43
+ imports: [ReactiveFormsModule],
44
+ template: `<form [formGroup]="form"></form>`
45
+ })
46
+ export class ExampleFormComponent {
47
+ private readonly formBuilder = new FormBuilder();
48
+
49
+ readonly form = this.formBuilder.group({
50
+ firstName: [''],
51
+ lastName: ['']
52
+ });
53
+
54
+ private readonly _tracked = track(this.form, 'profileForm');
55
+ }
56
+ ```
57
+
58
+ ## Local Demo And Documentation
59
+
60
+ If you want to explore the project locally, clone the repository, install dependencies, and start the example app:
61
+
62
+ ```bash
63
+ npm install
64
+ npm run dev
65
+ ```
66
+
67
+ The example app currently acts as the easiest hands-on documentation for the package.
68
+
69
+ To test the Chrome DevTools integration locally:
70
+
71
+ 1. Run `npm run build:extension:chrome-devtools`.
72
+ 2. Open `chrome://extensions`.
73
+ 3. Enable Developer Mode.
74
+ 4. Click `Load unpacked`.
75
+ 5. Select `dist/extensions/chrome-devtools`.
76
+ 6. Open the example app in Chrome.
77
+ 7. Open Chrome DevTools and switch to the `Angular Forms` panel.
