Links from embedded DevTools do not open in external browser

Open kenzieschmoll opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

Clicking a link in DevTools (documentation link, video tutorial link, report feedback button to open issue tracker, etc.) should open an external browser window to the provided URL, but instead, it opens a separate desktop app. Screenshot 2024-05-14 at 9 34 44 AM

Is this a JXBrowser default? This does not have the same behavior in VS Code for example. In DevTools, we call launchUrl: https://github.com/flutter/devtools/blob/master/packages/devtools_app/lib/src/shared/config_specific/launch_url/launch_url.dart/#L11

Maybe there is something we can pass to this URL to force it to open in an external browser window? @helin24
