1625495 - Remove devtools/shared/client folder

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(DevTools :: General, task, P3)

Description

[Julian Descottes [:jdescottes]]

The devtools/shared/client folder is confusing in our current folder layout.
We have:

• devtools/shared: modules shared between client & server, protocol, specs
• devtools/client/shared: shared ui components and widgets
• devtools/shared/client: contains a few files that are in theory client files, but which are needed in some tests

I propose to move all the files of devtools/shared/client in preparation for the following RFC: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1623937

If we go through the RFC above, such files would be in devtools/client, while frontend files would move to devtools/frontend (or devtools/client/frontend).

But in the meantime, devtools/shared/client is just confusing, especially considering it contains one of the most important files for the client: devtools-client.js
