What's new in DevTools (Chrome 145)

Soft Navigations are now visible in trace view

Line-level profiler timings now far more precise

Debugging improvements for @starting-style

<p>The soft navigation trace for SPAs is a big win. Debugging route changes in single-page apps was always guesswork before. Also the new render-blocking column will save time when tracking slow initial loads. DevTools keeps getting better for real performance work.</p>
