+// This helper allows to debug d8 using Chrome DevTools.
+//
+// It runs a simple REPL for inspector messages and relies on
+// websocketd (https://github.com/joewalnes/websocketd) for the WebSocket
+// communication.
+//
+// You can start a session with a debug build of d8 like:
+//
+// $ websocketd out/x64.debug/d8 YOUR_SCRIPT.js tools/inspect-d8.js
+//
+// After that, copy the URL from console and pass it as `ws=` parameter to
+// the Chrome DevTools frontend like:
+//
+// chrome-devtools://devtools/bundled/js_app.html?ws=localhost:80
