That depends. CSS prototyping is usually easier in Firefox. For example grid editing, flexbox, shape path editing.

I mostly switch to Chrome when debugging PWA. Other then that Firefox gives me better UX.

class A defines a let variable. It's how the standard define it.

You can replace A with: A = class {...}

This works with any browser.

BTW. In Firefox there is a multi line editor. With code completion. I actually find more convenient to test large code fragments in fox because of that.

Re:Select Transform: JSON template over JSON on Wednesday October 18, 2017 @02:00PM (#15501341)
The project is interesting... But I don't understand your point about JSON vs JS.

1. You can store JS anywhere (all DBMS support text).

2. You can send it over the Internet... Like everything else nowadays.

3. You can compose JS easily.

4. You can validate JS using linters.

5. etc.

Besides... Aren't you only disguising functions in strings? You can eval strings anyway.

No, for OS you decide which compilator to choose. As is with browsers. There are several languages (e.g. TypeScript, CoffeeScript, Dart) which can be compiled to JS.

That is not what I personally like (the processes of compilation and deployment I mean), but if you develop for OS then you have to compile before you run... In most OS.
