How do I use the console with an extension?

I am debugging a new extension of mine, Auto SRI Integrity, but something doesn’t seem to be working. I’ve tried using console.log to print the things I need, but there doesn’t seem to be a way to access the extension console. Currently, I’ve resorted to appending data to the container, which clearly is not the best approach. Is there a way to use the console when debugging an extension?

In Chrome and most Chromium-based browsers, you can click on the dropdown that says “top” to choose a context to debug:

There, you can choose the extension context and debug it:

I meant Replit extension, not Chrome extension…

This is how to debug a replit extension? Replit internally just uses an iframe so you would just debug it like one
