We're working on enabling standalone builds for parts of this package for
testing and development, please feel free to ignore this for now.
But, if you're familiar with
[Chromium's development process](https://www.chromium.org/developers/contributing-code)
and have the depot_tools installed, you may use these commands
to fetch the package (and dependencies) and build and run the tests:
fetch inspector_protocol
cd src
gn gen out/Release
ninja -C out/Release json_parser_test
out/Release/json_parser_test
You'll probably also need to install g++, since Clang uses this to find the
standard C++ headers. E.g.,
sudo apt-get install g++-8
