Is Vue.js devtools (v5) safe?
Clean risk
Vue.js devtools injects a detection hook into every page to find Vue apps, and keeps inspected component data on your device.
This is the official Vue.js developer tool. On every page it runs a small script in the page itself that defines the Vue devtools hook, which any script on that same page can read, and a detector that tells the extension only whether Vue, Nuxt, or devtools are present. Component, Vuex, and other application data is only read into the local DevTools panel when you open it, and nothing is sent off your device.
