Description

Tracking issue since the package.json is hidden in playgrounds - but it can be made visible and edited to add libraries.

We may want to make this visible if viewing a playground with an older Lit version, or show some notification.

Objective:

  • Make it not confusing what Lit version is being used, and make obvious that the package.json exists.

Research direction

Start by locating how playgrounds are rendered and where their package.json is stored or exposed. Check how the active Lit version is communicated, then define the visible package.json and older-version notification behavior; done means users can find the file, understand the Lit version, and edit dependencies.
