sen5241b Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 (edited) Chrome? Edge? Other? Had a bad experience with Edge. If development tools make one better than the other - what tools? And if you are using PHPStorm maybe the choice of browser is less important? No?

requinix Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 All the major browsers have more-or-less the same tools available. Question is which ones feel more natural to you. But that's mostly for frontend work with HTML, CSS, and even Javascript to an extent. Tends not to matter a whole lot for PHP - unless you count troubleshooting PHP's output, of course.

maxxd Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 Agree. I personally find Firefox dev tools easier to read and work with, but Chrome and Edge tools (given that they're pretty much the same) are certainly not bad. For PHP though, you're probably going to want to look at XDebug or something similar - browser dev tools are built to handle what happens in the browser, not on the server.

sen5241b Posted June 29, 2021 Author Share Posted June 29, 2021 Downloaded and glanced at Firefox developer edition. It did not seem to have unique features that. Did I miss something? Are there PHP plugins that make it magic?
