Description
Clear and concise description of the problem
When working with Vite, HMR updates happen frequently, but there’s currently no centralized way to observe or track them over time.
Suggested solution
Introduce a dedicated DevTools page that records and visualizes HMR updates in real time.
This view could include:
- A timeline or log of HMR events
- The files/modules that triggered each update
- Frequency of updates (to detect noisy modules)
- Optional visual highlighting of affected areas in the UI (#231)
