Developer Tools That Shouldn't Be Secrets
summary
Browser devtools contain about 37 panels and a powerful command menu (Ctrl/Cmd+Shift+P) that opens features by name. Practical tricks shown include console shortcuts ($, $$, $_), styled logs (%c), console.table/count/group, copy(), monitorEvents and sticky live expressions (eye icon). Device Mode simulates viewport, UA and throttling but not another engine; Overrides and Snippets let local files and scripts replace remote assets; lockpoints inject console logs into third‑party functions.
