Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

chrome debug does not work on codespace/online.visualstudio.com, even when I use headless browser

Describe the feature you'd like

make vs code codespace + vscode-live-server + * vscode-browser-preview * + chrome debug/attach works together on codespace/online.visualstudio.com

Allow to work with in codespace/online.visualstudio.com, as vscode-browser-preview plugin allow work on codespace which be mark as a remote scene， chrome plugin block it itself.

Btw, vscode-browser-preview works on codespace in browser, it's even faster than codespace's auto forward browser, and support protocol like websocket(as it's real browser and has no proxy), which make many cool scene work, it's especially useful when work with vscode-live-server plugin

Thanks for the issue. We've been talking about doing something like this for codespaces. For browser debugging, we do need a "real" browser, so we were thinking about running a headless chrome instance within the codespace and then mirroring styling and resources into a webview.

Cool!

@connor4312 we have the same feature request. Do we have timeline or roadmap for it? I believe it would be an important feature for the daily development on Codespaces, especially when we develop/debug a frontend web app. Is it possible for us to raise its priority as it's still in Backlog? Thanks~

Any word on this.

I am interested in using codespaces for front end development. If there was a method or browser extension that could link the built in chrome debugger to the browser based VScode instance that would be really nice.
