On: The Web Is Becoming Smalltalk

[error54]

I'm with you on that. It's the surprising the number of web developers who are just now finding out about this which leads me to another questions, what tools do they use if not Chrome Developer tools?

I imagine a text editor, terminal, browser, and a lot of Alt/Cmd+Tab, F5/Cmd+R, Ctrl+C+up+enter. But I can't say for sure.

Those are general tools. I want to know what tools people use for debugging Javascript that are similar to Chrome Developer tools or Firefox's Firebug.

I believe the implication there was that the debugging process is "try, try again".

Haha ah thanks for the clarification cdcarter. That is a process I know all too well when debugging code in Internet Explorer 8.
