Description
We added some support for remote debugging the Playground app, see:
https://github.com/microsoft/react-native-windows/wiki/VS-Remote-Debugging
However this technique doesn't work anymore. I debugged this and found two issues:
- The privateNetworkClientServer capability isn't turned on in Package.appxmanifest
- The client code is failing to connect due to using localhost:8081. It looks like we're missing the plumbing code that was originally added to HostingPane, which is no longer being used in Playground.
We should find a way to re-enable this. We should also think about how to enable remote debugging for CLI apps when we fix this - ideally whatever we do would also work for template apps.
