Now we can debug a remote Android webview by Chrome devtools.

Is it possible to use Chrome debugger protocol to remote debug Android webview?

Thanks.

Do you mean something different than https://developers.google.com/web/tools/chrome-devtools/debug/remote-debugging/webviews?hl=en?

Yes,we can use chrome devtools to debug a remote android webview because it bases on chrome debugger protocol.

I want to know if I can use chrome debugger protocol directly.

Because I want to collect some performance data.

Yup, you should be able to connect over ADB and then forward the devtools port for the webview: http://stackoverflow.com/a/20282005/89484

this link has an easy way to get the intended process, too: https://github.com/AlJohri/chromedevtools
