All relevant build output files are now put into gen/front_end. To make sure that we don't run into duplicate JS entrypoint files, we have to turn of the emit of these targets in front_end/BUILD.gn, such that build_release_applications can put its output there. Since build_release_applications takes the files from the front_end source directory, not the gen directory, this causes no issues. After this change, it is possible to use --custom-devtools-frontend with gen/front_end rather than resources/inspector.

DevTools frontend is also available on NPM as the chrome-devtools-frontend package. It's not currently available via CJS or ES modules, so consuming this package in other tools may require some effort.
The version number of the npm package (e.g. 1.0.373466) refers to the Chromium commit position of latest frontend git commit. It's incremented with every Chromium commit, however the package is updated roughly daily.
