This course has already ended.

Browser developer tools

For this course we’ll be using Google Chrome. Of course other browsers also have developer tools and you’re free to use them.

For web developers Chrome offers (at least at the moment) the best developer tools. Running audits in Chrome offers lots of information about SEO, Accessibility, performance, PWA practices etc etc. For this reason our examples are going to feature Chrome. At least on Edge, Firefox and Chrome pressing F12 opens up the developer tools.
