Better web vitals data and easier request waterfall analysis.
Web Vitals tab
If you want to optimize Web Vitals DebugBear now provides all the metrics in one place. You can also see the DOM element that caused the Largest Contentful Paint, and a list of the layout shifts that occurred on the page.
In addition to the DebugBear lab data, the tab also shows real user metrics from the Chrome User Experience Report.
Improved request waterfall
The request waterfall now shows badges for render-blocking requests (B) and resources that are preloaded (L).
Improved trendlines
You can now choose to view daily instead of weekly trendline data. In addition to trendlines for Lighthouse scores and Performance metrics you can now also look at HTML and console errors.
Upgrades to Chrome and Lighthouse
DebugBear now runs tests using Chrome 92 and Lighthouse 8.3.0.
