      Chromium/QtWebEngine features a built-in remote inspector , that can be accessed from a chrome browser both remotely and locally:

      • Start application with command line argument --remote-debugging-port=XXXX , where XXX is a valid unused port number (usually in the range 49152–65535)
      • Open chrome browser and type e.g. "http://localhost:XXXX/"

      The features you have then are also described in https://developer.chrome.com/devtools. We should document the process at minimum.

      Further tips for debugging that we could document

      • --single-process command line argument allows easier C++ debugging
