This didn't work for me. 1. I installed the nightly build as told. 2. Open nightly build 3. Went to the "Save Recording" option 4. The first two times, I got a [javascript error] saying I could not record. 5. The remaining couple of times - after I open a "New Recording Tab", whatever that is - I didn't see the javascript error but the website whose clickthru I wanted to record using this tool didn't even load in tha…
Hmm, join us in http://devtools-html.slack.com/ and we'd be happy to help you debug it. If the tab crashed, you can get the report in about:crashes
They should've put this note at the very top of the page: "Mac OS only for now!". What is the point of promoting this to everyone at this stage?
Team member here. Firefox Replay is currently in user research phase while we validate it. Cross platform support will absolutely be a priority when Replay is on the official roadmap. Thanks for the feedback, firefox-replay.com is also a work in progress. We did not plan an official release today. We'll be sure to make the Mac OS limitation more clear. Here is some more context on the mac specific functionality ( htt…

What is non-determinism in the browser?
Once source comes from the memory allocator, and the pointers it gives out. If you have an ordered map of pointers (e.g. std::map ), iterating over the map will not be deterministic because the pointers given by a (regular) allocator are not deterministic.

Is there some technical reason it's only for os x? I'm not really upset they targeted Macs first but I am a bit curious why they felt a need to.
Firefox is a native app that is ported between OSes. It doesn't run on a VM.
One of my favorite books starting out was the Stevens book about Unix. It only covers the differences in system call availability and behavior across Unix OSes. It doesn’t even touch graphics. It’s a big fat book just covering file, network, processes, and memory operations. No Mac, no Microsoft, just Unix.

I implemented it in my real time code editor coursework project where I made use of [Ace Editor](https://ace.c9.io/)'s CRDT. The time machine slider does the job and looked remarkable when it ran.

Don't know why you're downvoted but you're totally right. FF's dev tool is still very far behind Chrome's. IIRC things like websocket inspection aren't even in mainline FF yet. If people want to see many examples of what Chrome's webtool can do and FF can't, just take a look at this page "What's New In DevTools" for each Chrome release. https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2019/10/devtools

As a former gnu/linux user, I see no point to have it on a desktop. Gnu is happy to live under c:/MSYS2, and ‘linux’ part was never good at desktop-home hardware anyway. These 1.77% are barely justified as an option, imo.

Windows 47.5%
MacOS 26.8%
Linux-based 25.6%
BSD 0.1%
2% of yahoos and nobodies run Linux on the desktop 1 in 4 developers do.
Linux like Mac has never had and will never have perfect support for all hardware. Much like you can buy a Mac from the store you can buy a well supported system that comes with Linux.
Unlike Mac you can install it on a lot of systems and go.
Strange days indeed. Just giving some thanks where it's due.

Linux these days, if you just want a working desktop experience, requires no configuration. You pop in an ubuntu usb drive and install, done. It will often run better than the version of windows that the machine actually shipped with. Myself, personally, I stopped running anything but linux more than a decade ago. All I remember from windows is how often it broke in ways that were completely unfixable.
Firefox and Chromium crash constantly on a fresh install of Ubuntu 18 on my Thinkpad T420. Only excuse I can think of is that it's an old machine. I want to switch but every time I kick the tires I'm baffled at how quickly it blows up.
