How is Chrome DevTools "miles better" than Firefox Developer Tools included with Firefox Developer Edition?

I checked your blog to see if you've written a detailed comparison. I saw that your latest blog post is about writing your first user script in 2018, and you didn't use the term "user script"[1][2]; instead, you used the term "Tampermonkey Scripting" as if Tampermonkey originated user scripts. Do you have enough experience with web development to adequately compare Chrome DevTools and Firefox Developer Tools?

This might just be from my own limited experience, but firefox developer tools provides way too much information when inspecting elements on a page. It gets to the point that its distracting. I don't need to know where an element is positioned on the page, I can see it on the page itself. There might be perhaps settings to change this, but the native settings are not to my liking. I also have noticed on the on/off many occassions I have used it in the last 2 years, there is sometimes noticable lag delays when inspecting items. I find the interface much less intuitive as well.

I will argue that firefox does have significantly better support for CSS grid layouts (as it came out with support first), but I don't use that often, and recently chrome unleased these tools in the last year to my knowledge.

I use chrome inspection tools tab for the following purposes now mostly: elements, console, sources, and network. I don't use any of the other tools very often, partially because I don't need too. This is what I mostly compared firefox developer edition tools too.

I've found when I wrote my first stylish extension and just debugging in javascript chrome is just a much more pleasant experience. I have never really run into any problems asides some issues regarding its native RWD tools for handling body margins. Firefox did not have this issue, but this is why I use the linked tool in the above comment

I was aware when I wrote that post that its not called tampermonkey scripting and it was called something else but I didn't remember at the time. Now I know its userscripts :)

FYI v55 is quite old by now... a quick check at chrome://version on my Mac shows that Chrome Stable is running v67...

to be fair, chrome's versioning means that that's probably just like 2 weeks difference.

Chrome releases about every 6 weeks, so the difference is about 1 years worth of updates.

This is correct. More info here: https://www.chromium.org/developers/calendar

Firebug and the new firefox debuggers are identical for me, not sure how chrome is better. Each has oddities.

How can the red exclamation mark not bug you ?

Wrong. Try again.
