Sourcemaps functionality
In IRC someone was asking about the integration of sourcemaps within DevTools. Specifically about the sources panel based on an older H5R article. We should document sourcemaps integration fully in a single document that can be kept up-to-date as things change.
Looking things over, there is quite a bit of duplication.
Each of these has some overlap in content along with pretty detailed explanations of what maps are. Doing some searching, I'm unable to find a canonical resource for sourcemaps. I've found a Google Doc for a proposal of Revision 3, but I'm not sure if this is really the official document or just something work was being done in.
Regardless, I am currently in the process of doing the following:
- [ ] Creating a source-maps.html doc page to cover:
- [x] What sourcemaps are
- [x] How to activate them in the DevTools
- [ ] How to setup your server resources
- [ ] A basic example or two
- [ ] Going over the JS Debugging page
- Remove duplicate content from new primary page
- Reword/structure unique content to complement the primary page
- [ ] Repeat the same steps with JS Debugging for the CSS Preprocessor page.
- [ ] Go over Tips and Tricks content and pull any useful information out into the appropriate place
The initial page from my work this morning is up. Very basic right now from the language cleanup.
