I made my first contribution to Firefox the other day... I downloaded the source on a whim, realised I could build and run it - so went to the bug tracker. There was a bug with the box model editor that if the labels were long (such as "auto") then they would overlap the borders. I made it so long labels will rotate 90 degrees (try it out, change the outside margin to "auto"). I'm pretty stoked that some code I wrote…

Same. Credit to the team for great support and follow-ups. Some starting points for those who wants to contribute: * Quick start for devtools developers: https://wiki.mozilla.org/DevTools/Hacking * More general info: http://codefirefox.com/ * bugs/tasks flagged as "mentored" is a good way to introduce your self to the code.

Firebug is still unbeatable, chrome dev has a lot to catch up.

Long time ago I used Firebug. What do you see is better in Firebug than Chrome Devtools?

Chrome adamantly refuses to un-enable responsive useragent stuff. I constantly have to turn off the extra half-window. More evidence that Google has little product sense.

That's how I let errors bubble up in my app. Am I doing it wrong? According to this, that won't show a stack trace.

Same here. I still feel Firefox devtools are not innovating fast enough. Chrome workspaces and a lot of other useful features are just not present in Firefox. I feel that's one of the major reason I could never migrated to Firefox professionally. I am also quite impressed with IE 10 & 11 devtools. It is really useful and has clean UI and UX. In short I could say that: Chrome Devtools > Firebug > IE devtools > Firefox…

I'll use chrome devtools the day they add multiline console support. Really? In 2014, and you want me to shift-enter 200 lines of code?
