![]() ![]() ![]() For as long as I am able, I will keep my old version of Firefox and my beloved Firebug. This is one of those cases where I just ask myself “why?” If they were going to move to one platform, why didn’t they move towards Firebug, and bake it in as the developer tools? Did they bother to actually ask any professional developers what their thoughts were? Now, we just have two versions of Chrome developer tools. Attached is the CrashReporter dump from OS X. ![]() The crash report submitted by Breakpad is almost useless (bp-dd759630-ef07-11dc-b2e2-001a4bd43e5c). When I click Enable on it, the click Restart, I get a crash in Firefox after it restarts and displays all the windows. I realize there is a possible security vulnerability to this, but considering I am using it to debug sites that I myself am developing, that seems like a non-issue. So with Firebug 1.1b12 in my Addons list already, but disabled, things are fine. And that’s something that makes my job as a front-end developer that much more painful.įor those interested, you can keep using Firefox as I am, by simply uninstalling the newest version and installing an older version (49), then disabling the update feature. For specific reasons, see Erik de Vries answer above, and then add-on the fact that changes made to CSS attributes on elements in the HTML pane are no longer rendered real-time in the page – you have to click out of the tag to see the change. They are basically just a carbon-copy of the Google developer tools, and if I wanted to use them, I would have started using them a long time ago. I do NOT like the Firefox developer tools, especially when compared to Firebug, and think this is terrible news.
