Benefits of DevTools
The DevTools is a great place for developers to debug and gain useful information on their web pages. The benefits it provides to the developers are:
- Easy to Navigate around: The DevTools can easily be learned by developers in no time and developers can’t start using the tools with little to no prior knowledge. The tools are also easily accessible using the shortcut key.
- Guide & Videos: The DevTools in Edge are well documented and the team behind the DevTools with proper documentation and videos act as a guide to new users.
- Simple yet Effective UI: The UI is clean and well-organized with a proper layout. The tools have their respective tabs and in every tab, there is uniformity in the UI, so you can easily understand the UI elements of each tool.
- A good amount of Customization: The tabs in the DevTools can be moved to rearrange according to the user’s needs. We can dock the DevTools to the bottom, right, left, or into a separate window. The user can also change the DevTools theme in the setting option present in the three dots in the top right corner of the DevTools.
- Feels Responsive to Use: The DevTools feels responsive to use and takes little to no time to display information. As it is built into the browser there are no lags and the UI response is instant.
