## Summary
When using React DevTools to highlight component updates, the highlights
would sometimes appear behind elements that use the browser's
[top-layer](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Glossary/Top_layer)
(such as `<dialog>` elements or components using the Popover API). This
made it difficult to see which components were updating when they were
inside or behind top-layer elements.
This PR fixes the issue by using the Popover API to ensure that
highlighting appears on top of all content, including elements in the
top-layer. The implementation maintains backward compatibility with
browsers that don't support the Popover API.
## How did you test this change?
I tested this change in the following ways:
1. Manually tested in Chrome (which supports the Popover API) with:
- Created a test application with React components inside `<dialog>`
elements and custom elements using the Popover API
- Verified that component highlighting appears above these elements when
they update
- Confirmed that highlighting displays correctly for nested components
within top-layer elements
2. Verified backward compatibility:
- Tested in browsers without Popover API support to ensure fallback
behavior works correctly
- Confirmed that no errors occur and highlighting still functions as
before
3. Ran the React DevTools test suite:
- All tests pass successfully
- No regressions were introduced

Feature was added in https://github.com/facebook/react/pull/31577, lets
enable it by default. Note: for gradual rollout with React Native, we
will continue to emit different event, requires some changes on React
Native side to support this.
I have plans to make this feature to be accessible via browser context
menu, which has really limited API. In order to minimize potential
divergence, lets make this the default state for the feature.
## Summary
This PR improves the Trace Updates feature by letting developers see
component names directly on the update overlay. Before this change, the
overlay only highlighted updated regions, leaving it unclear which
components were involved. With this update, you can now match visual
updates to their corresponding components, making it much easier to
debug rendering performance.
### New Feature: Show component names while highlighting
When the new **"Show component names while highlighting"** setting is
enabled, the update overlay display the names of affected components
above the rectangles, along with the update count. This gives immediate
context about what’s rendering and why. The preference is stored in
local storage and synced with the backend, so it’s remembered across
sessions.
### Improvements to Drawing Logic
The drawing logic has been updated to make the overlay sharper and
easier to read. Overlay now respect device pixel ratios, so they look
great on high-DPI screens. Outlines have also been made crisper, which
makes it easier to spot exactly where updates are happening.
> [!NOTE]
> **Grouping Logic and Limitations**
> Updates are grouped by their screen position `(left, top coordinates)`
to combine overlapping or nearby regions into a single group. Groups are
sorted by the highest update count within each group, making the most
frequently updated components stand out.
> Overlapping labels may still occur when multiple updates involve
components that overlap but are not in the exact same position. This is
intentional, as the logic aims to maintain a straightforward mapping
between update regions and component names without introducing
unnecessary complexity.
### Testing
This PR also adds tests for the new `groupAndSortNodes` utility, which
handles the logic for grouping and sorting updates. The tests ensure the
behavior is reliable across different scenarios.

## Summary
This PR bumps Flow all the way to the latest 0.245.2.
Most of the suppressions comes from Flow v0.239.0's change to include
undefined in the return of `Array.pop`.
I also enabled `react.custom_jsx_typing=true` and added custom jsx
typing to match the old behavior that `React.createElement` is
effectively any typed. This is necessary since various builtin
components like `React.Fragment` is actually symbol in the React repo
instead of `React.AbstractComponent<...>`. It can be made more accurate
by customizing the `React$CustomJSXFactory` type, but I will leave it to
the React team to decide.
## How did you test this change?
`yarn flow` for all the renderers
Same principle as #30555. We shouldn't be throttling the UI to make it
feel less snappy. Instead, we should use back-pressure to handle it.
Normally the browser handles it automatically with frame aligned events.
E.g. if the thread can't keep up with sync updates it doesn't send each
event but the next one. E.g. pointermove or resize.
However, it is possible that we end up queuing too many events if the
frontend can't keep up but the solution to this is the same as mentioned
in #30555. I.e. to track the last message and only send after we get a
response.
I still keep the throttle to persist the selection since that affects
the disk usage and doesn't have direct UX effects.
The main motivation for this change though is that lodash throttle
doesn't rely on timers but Date.now which makes it incompatible with
most jest helpers which means I can't write tests against these
functions properly.
Basically the new Float types needs to be supported. Resources are a bit
special because they're a DOM specific type but we can expect any other
implementation using resources to provide and instance on this field if
needed.
There's a slightly related case for the reverse lookup. You can already
select a singleton or hoistable (that's not a resource) in the browser
elements panel and it'll select the corresponding node in the RDT
Components panel. That works because it uses the same mechanism as event
dispatching and those need to be able to receive events.
However, you can't select a resource. Because that's conceptually one to
many. We could in principle just search the tree for the first one or
keep a map of currently mounted resources and just pick the first fiber
that created it. So that you can select a resource and see what created
it. Particularly useful when there's only one Fiber which is most of the
time.

Stacked on #30491.
When going from DOM Node to select a component or highlight a component
we find the nearest mounted ancestor. However, when multiple renderers
are nested there can be multiple ancestors. The original fix#24665 did
this by taking the inner renderer if it was an exact match but if it
wasn't it just took the first renderer.
Instead, we can track the inner most node we've found so far. Then get
the ID from that node (which will be fast since it's now a perfect
match). This is a better match.
However, the main reason I'm doing this is because the old mechanism
leaked the `Fiber` type outside the `RendererInterface` which is
supposed to abstract all of that. With the new algorithm this doesn't
leak.
I've tested this with a new build against the repro in the old issue
#24539 and it seems to work.
Stacked on #30490.
This is in the same spirit but to clarify the difference between what is
React Native vs part of any generic Host. We used to use "Native" to
mean three different concepts. Now "Native" just means React Native.
E.g. from the frontend's perspective the Host can be
Highlighted/Inspected. However, that in turn can then be implemented as
either direct DOM manipulation or commands to React Native. So frontend
-> backend is "Host" but backend -> React Native is "Native" while
backend -> DOM is "Web".
Rename NativeElementsPanel to BuiltinElementsPanel. This isn't a React
Native panel but one part of the surrounding DevTools. We refer to Host
more as the thing running React itself. I.e. where the backend lives.
The runtime you're inspecting. The DevTools itself needs a third term.
So I went with "Builtin".
I need to start clarifying where things are really actually Fibers and
where they're not since I'm adding Server Components as a separate type
of component instance which is not backed by a Fiber.
Nothing in the front end should really know anything about what kind of
renderer implementation we're inspecting and indeed it's already not
always a "Fiber" in the legacy renderer.
We typically refer to this as a "Component Instance" but the front end
currently refers to it as an Element as it historically grew from the
browser DevTools Elements tab.
I also moved the renderer.js implementation into the `backend/fiber`
folder. These are at the same level as `backend/legacy`. This clarifies
that anything outside of this folder ideally shouldn't refer to a
"Fiber".
console.js and profilingHooks.js unfortunately use Fibers a lot which
needs further refactoring. The profiler frontend also uses the term
alot.
We are currently just pass the first element, which diverges from the
implementation for web. This is especially bad if you are inspecting
something like a list, where host fiber can represent multiple elements.
This part runs on the backend of React DevTools, so it should not affect
cases for React Native when frontend version can be more up-to-date than
backend's. I will double-check it before merging.
Once version of `react-devtools-core` is updated in React Native, this
should be supported, I will work on that later.
For React Native environment, we sometimes spam the console with
warnings `"Could not find Fiber with id ..."`.
This is an attempt to fix this or at least reduce the amount of such
potential warnings being thrown.
Now checking if fiber is already unnmounted before trying to get native
nodes for fiber. This might happen if you try to inspect an element in
DevTools, but at the time when event has been received, the element was
already unmounted.

## Summary
<!--
Explain the **motivation** for making this change. What existing problem
does the pull request solve?
-->
This pull request emit the trace update events `drawTraceUpdates` with
the trace frame information when the trace update drawer runs outside of
web environment. This allows React Devtool running in mobile or other
platforms have a chance to render such highlights and provide similar
feature on web to provide re-render highlights. This is a feature needed
for identifying unnecessary re-renders.
## How did you test this change?
<!--
Demonstrate the code is solid. Example: The exact commands you ran and
their output, screenshots / videos if the pull request changes the user
interface.
How exactly did you verify that your PR solves the issue you wanted to
solve?
If you leave this empty, your PR will very likely be closed.

I tested this change with Flipper desktop app running against mobile
app, and verified that the event with correct array of frames are
passing through properly.
The old version of prettier we were using didn't support the Flow syntax
to access properties in a type using `SomeType['prop']`. This updates
`prettier` and `rollup-plugin-prettier` to the latest versions.
I added the prettier config `arrowParens: "avoid"` to reduce the diff
size as the default has changed in Prettier 2.0. The largest amount of
changes comes from function expressions now having a space. This doesn't
have an option to preserve the old behavior, so we have to update this.
This setting is an incremental path to the next Flow version enforcing
type annotations on most functions (except some inline callbacks).
Used
```
node_modules/.bin/flow codemod annotate-functions-and-classes --write .
```
to add a majority of the types with some hand cleanup when for large
inferred objects that should just be `Fiber` or weird constructs
including `any`.
Suppressed the remaining issues.

Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/react/pull/25412
* Remove object-assign polyfill
We really rely on a more modern environment where this is typically
polyfilled anyway and we don't officially support IE with more extensive
polyfilling anyway. So all environments should have the native version
by now.
* Use shared/assign instead of Object.assign in code
This is so that we have one cached local instance in the bundle.
Ideally we should have a compile do this for us but we already follow
this pattern with hasOwnProperty, isArray, Object.is etc.
* Transform Object.assign to now use shared/assign
We need this to use the shared instance when Object.spread is used.
* Enable prefer-const rule
Stylistically I don't like this but Closure Compiler takes advantage of
this information.
* Auto-fix lints
* Manually fix the remaining callsites
* Update Flow to 0.84
* Fix violations
* Use inexact object syntax in files from fbsource
* Fix warning extraction to use a modern parser
* Codemod inexact objects to new syntax
* Tighten types that can be exact
* Revert unintentional formatting changes from codemod
