Glitchy Extension Webview

Extensions Bug reports
1

So I noticed the new right arrow thingy next to Create Repl and clicked it, and then created an extension to test its capabilities. When I ran it, the Replit webview opened but got stuck on loading:

Then I selected Open In New Tab and this was the result:

Why is this happening? Is there a fix for it?

P.S. Even while writing this, the webview is still showing “Loading…”

Edit: I just found the Extensions Devtools and opened the extension preview. The output was shown. I don’t know if the webview not showing anything could be considered a bug now…

The webview is not the correct way to access an extension. Use the devtools and preview your extension so that Replit can establish the handshake correctly.
