On the Internet, you'll find scammers who show off their massive bank account balances while they try to sell you a course on how you can get there too.
But there's actually an easier way to grow your bank account.
Open up the browser console with control shift j, then execute this line of code to turn the document's design mode on.
We can now modify any text in the web page itself like the bank account balance.
As developers, we tend to take a lot of technologies for granted.
One of which is the web browser.
Not only is it one of the most important technologies for all of humanity, but modern browsers contain all kinds of awesome developer tools that were unimaginable 10 years ago.
In today's video, we'll look at A ton of features and tricks in your browser's dev tools that you probably didn't know exist and will make your life much easier as a web developer.
1st, like and subscribe to keep this content coming, then Add your own pro tip to the comments and I'll pick one of them to win this free t shirt next week.
I'm going to focus on Chrome Dev Tools in this video, but Firefox Also has an awesome suite of dev tools and most of the tricks I'll show you apply to both browsers.
And if you use Edge or Brave, they're both based on Chromium, so everything applies there as well.
And And if you use Safari or Internet Explorer, may God help you.
1st, we need to open up the console, which we can do with the control shift j shortcut.
Cut.
What you may not know is that Chrome has a command palette just like Versus Code that you can access with control p.
Type in angle bracket and that will give you a list of every command and at your disposal in the dev tools.
A useful one, especially if you want to show off your bank account, is screenshot, which allows you to screenshot an entire page, a custom area, or an individual DOM node.
But if we go ahead and open up the command palette again, you'll notice it provides a big list of files.
These files Are the actual HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and images loaded by this web page?
When you click on one, it takes you to the sources tab where you can actually edit and inspect the file.
In production, it's likely minified, so click the pretty print button to make it look nicer.
But here's something you didn't know.
In the bottom right corner, you'll see the option for coverage, which will bring up the coverage panel.
And this will tell you exactly how much your JavaScript or CSS is contributing to the visual elements on This page, red bars indicate unused or dead code that may be making your app slower.
You might wanna go verify that that code is actually required in your production bundle.
Now if you want to execute some JavaScript code in the browser, you can do that from the console.
You'll likely be using a command like document query selector to grab an element from the DOM.
But web developers have always felt that that's way too much code.
Instead, use a dollar sign just like jquery as an alias a document query selector, or grab multiple elements with a double dollar sign like query selector all.
Or if you happen to have something selected in the elements tab, use dollar sign 0 to grab the current element.
Once you've grabbed an element, you may want to see how its value changes over time.
You could execute the same line of code over and over again.
But a smarter option is to click on the eye icon to pin it to the console as a live expression, where it will automatically update every time the application state changes.
In some cases though, you may want to run more complex code.
Open the command palette and create a new snippet.
You can write whatever JavaScript code you'd like here, then when you open up the command palette again and type a bang, it'll be there ready for you to execute whenever you need it.
That's pretty cool, but one thing that can be kind Annoying is that when you're messing around in the console, you might want to re declare the same variable over and over again.
Using const with the same name twice would normally produce an error, but in the Chrome console, it's no problem because we're just messing around here.
JavaScript is one thing, but more often than not, I'm using the browser dev tools to debug my HTML and CSS.
If If I'm illegally scraping a website, I might want to go to their HTML and copy an element into my own project.
I could just copy the element with control c, or I can right click and get a variety of different copy options.
An especially useful one is copy selector because I can then use it to target an element in my CSS or JavaScript.
Or if I really like the way an element looks, I can copy its styles and paste them directly in my CSS.
When you click on an element In the DOM, it will show you all of the CSS styles that apply to it in the styles tab.
But what if you want to see the styles when an is hovered or focused.
You can do that by right clicking an element, or from the styles panel, you'll see the HOV button to force an element state.
That'll cause the element to stay frozen in that state, making it easier to inspect that CSS.
That's useful for simple transitions, but you might also have Of complex animations on a page, the animations panel allows you to record any keyframe animations that are happening on the screen.
You can scrub them back and forth slowly and inspect the actual CSS properties that they affect, and is really useful for understanding how animations work on other impressive web pages.
However, If you go too crazy with your animations, it may slow down the rendering of the web page causing jank and just an uncomfortable user experience.
The rendering panel is like a heads up display that helps you Detect a variety of different issues before they become a problem.
If we check the box for frame rendering stats, it will provide data about the frames per second and the total memory used just on the GPU.
Now, CSS is awesome and all, but the best kind of code is the code that you don't have to write.
If you're working with Flexbox or Grid layout, Go to the layout tab and draw visual markers around those elements by checking the boxes that you want to see.
Back in the styles tab, if you go to the display property and its value is Flexbox or Grid, you'll see an icon that you can click on.
That brings up a dialog where you can modify the layout without having to memorize a bunch of confusing CSS properties.
And there's also a similar tool for box shadows, which are notoriously difficult to code by hand.
But if you'd rather modify your website with something more like an actual design tool, check out the Vysbug extension.
It Allows you to interact with the web page itself and modify its appearance without knowing or understanding CSS whatsoever.
Now your design may look good on your machine, but how do You know it's responsive to different screen sizes.
You can find out by clicking on the device toolbar.
It provides a bunch of common screen sizes to choose from, or you can use the Sponsored option to resize it yourself manually, and you can even throttle the network speed here to simulate low end devices.
But the fun doesn't stop there.
If you're targeting mobile devices that use geolocation or motion, you can simulate things like GPS coordinates and device acceleration and motion from the sensors panel.
If you're You're targeting mobile users, then you're likely building a progressive web app.
The Lighthouse tool will analyze your website for performance, search engine optimization, and progressive web app features.
If you pass the audit, it means your website can be installed on a mobile device just like a native app.
And if you fail the audit, it It will tell you exactly what you need to address in order to make the experience for mobile users better.
One of the most common issues is that a website is slow to paint the initial content, and that's usually because as it tries to load too much JavaScript and CSS.
You can inspect exactly how the browser loads all of your assets by going to the network tab.
It creates a waterfall graphic That shows every request the browser makes and how long it takes to fetch each one of those assets.
If you're worried about performance, turn on screenshots to see how your website loads after Each request is completed.
Clicking on an individual item will provide a breakdown of the response body and headers.
And if you wanna dive really deep into performance, click on the timing panel.
It'll They'll show you exactly how long it took to fetch something, breaking down the timing all the way to the DNS level.
What you didn't know though is that there's actually a server timing API that allows you to pass more detailed information from your server to the browser.
When the server timing header is present on a response, Chrome will automatically break that formation down in the browser dev tools.
For the end user, there are 4 main issues when it comes to performance, response, animation, idle, and load.
Lighthouse and the network panel can help you debug loading issues, but for the other 3, we'll need to analyze the actual run time performance of our code, which we can do in the Performance panel.
Hit the record button, then start using your site like an end user.
When you end the recording, it'll give you a breakdown of the CPU usage, frames per second, and the amount of memory allocated to the heap.
If you notice a spike in CPU usage, a drop in frames per second, or a jump in memory usage, it might Indicate an area of code that needs to be optimized.
To investigate further, Chrome has generated a flame chart that breaks down everything that happens on the browser's main in Thread.
In other words, this is how the browser executes your JavaScript step by step.
The x axis represents time and the y axis is the call stack.
If the If it's really tall, it's not much of a problem.
You might just be calling deeply nested functions.
But if a frame is really wide, it means that something is taking a long time, in which case you should Click on it to investigate why your code sucks in more detail.
Now in some cases, the main thread might be fine, but your code might create a memory leak by allocating memory to objects that you No longer need.
You can tell you have a memory leak when this blue line gets bigger and bigger.
But to investigate it further, let's head over to the memory Select the option for allocation instrumentation, then hit the record button.
When it's done, the blue bars indicate memory that is still in use, while the gray bars indicate if memory that was garbage collected.
At any point in time, you can see every object that's currently allocated to the heap.
It can be sorted by size, allowing you to figure out exactly which Objects are clogging up your memory.
And there you have 21 techniques to try out in Chrome Dev Tools.
But here's one more bonus tip to leave you with.
If you like Chrome Dev Tools, then you'll also like Brave Browser.
They don't pay me to say that.
It's just the browser that I use for most of my personal work.
It's based on Chromium, so all of the dev tools are exactly the same.
And the The CEO of the company is none other than Brendan Eich, the inventor of JavaScript.
But most importantly, it's privacy focused with built in ad blocking capabilities.
And when it does show ads, you actually get paid to see them.
That's pretty awesome, but I'm gonna go ahead and wrap things up there.

But here's one more bonus tip to leave you with. If you like Chrome Dev Tools, then you'll also like Brave Browser. They don't pay me to say that. It's just the browser that I use for most of my personal work. It's based on Chromium, so all of the dev tools are exactly the same. And the The CEO of the company is none other than Brendan Eich, the inventor of JavaScript. But most importantly, it's privacy focused with built in ad blocking capabilities. And when it does show ads, you actually get paid to see them. That's pretty awesome, but I'm gonna go ahead and wrap things up there.

On the Internet, you'll find scammers who show off their massive bank account balances while they try to sell you a course on how you can get there too. But there's actually an easier way to grow your bank account. Open up the browser console with control shift j, then execute this line of code to turn the document's design mode on. We can now modify any text in the web page itself like the bank account balance. As developers, we tend to take a lot of technologies for granted. One of which is the web browser. Not only is it one of the most important technologies for all of humanity, but modern browsers contain all kinds of awesome developer tools that were unimaginable 10 years ago. In today's video, we'll look at A ton of features and tricks in your browser's dev tools that you probably didn't know exist and will make your life much easier as a web developer. 1st, like and subscribe to keep this content coming, then Add your own pro tip to the comments and I'll pick one of them to win this free t shirt next week. I'm going to focus on Chrome Dev Tools in this video, but Firefox Also has an awesome suite of dev tools and most of the tricks I'll show you apply to both browsers. And if you use Edge or Brave, they're both based on Chromium, so everything applies there as well. And And if you use Safari or Internet Explorer, may God help you. 1st, we need to open up the console, which we can do with the control shift j shortcut. Cut. What you may not know is that Chrome has a command palette just like Versus Code that you can access with control p. Type in angle bracket and that will give you a list of every command and at your disposal in the dev tools. A useful one, especially if you want to show off your bank account, is screenshot, which allows you to screenshot an entire page, a custom area, or an individual DOM node. But if we go ahead and open up the command palette again, you'll notice it provides a big list of files. These files Are the actual HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and images loaded by this web page? When you click on one, it takes you to the sources tab where you can actually edit and inspect the file. In production, it's likely minified, so click the pretty print button to make it look nicer. But here's something you didn't know. In the bottom right corner, you'll see the option for coverage, which will bring up the coverage panel. And this will tell you exactly how much your JavaScript or CSS is contributing to the visual elements on This page, red bars indicate unused or dead code that may be making your app slower. You might wanna go verify that that code is actually required in your production bundle. Now if you want to execute some JavaScript code in the browser, you can do that from the console. You'll likely be using a command like document query selector to grab an element from the DOM. But web developers have always felt that that's way too much code. Instead, use a dollar sign just like jquery as an alias a document query selector, or grab multiple elements with a double dollar sign like query selector all. Or if you happen to have something selected in the elements tab, use dollar sign 0 to grab the current element. Once you've grabbed an element, you may want to see how its value changes over time. You could execute the same line of code over and over again. But a smarter option is to click on the eye icon to pin it to the console as a live expression, where it will automatically update every time the application state changes. In some cases though, you may want to run more complex code. Open the command palette and create a new snippet. You can write whatever JavaScript code you'd like here, then when you open up the command palette again and type a bang, it'll be there ready for you to execute whenever you need it. That's pretty cool, but one thing that can be kind Annoying is that when you're messing around in the console, you might want to re declare the same variable over and over again. Using const with the same name twice would normally produce an error, but in the Chrome console, it's no problem because we're just messing around here. JavaScript is one thing, but more often than not, I'm using the browser dev tools to debug my HTML and CSS. If If I'm illegally scraping a website, I might want to go to their HTML and copy an element into my own project. I could just copy the element with control c, or I can right click and get a variety of different copy options. An especially useful one is copy selector because I can then use it to target an element in my CSS or JavaScript. Or if I really like the way an element looks, I can copy its styles and paste them directly in my CSS. When you click on an element In the DOM, it will show you all of the CSS styles that apply to it in the styles tab. But what if you want to see the styles when an is hovered or focused. You can do that by right clicking an element, or from the styles panel, you'll see the HOV button to force an element state. That'll cause the element to stay frozen in that state, making it easier to inspect that CSS. That's useful for simple transitions, but you might also have Of complex animations on a page, the animations panel allows you to record any keyframe animations that are happening on the screen. You can scrub them back and forth slowly and inspect the actual CSS properties that they affect, and is really useful for understanding how animations work on other impressive web pages. However, If you go too crazy with your animations, it may slow down the rendering of the web page causing jank and just an uncomfortable user experience. The rendering panel is like a heads up display that helps you Detect a variety of different issues before they become a problem. If we check the box for frame rendering stats, it will provide data about the frames per second and the total memory used just on the GPU. Now, CSS is awesome and all, but the best kind of code is the code that you don't have to write. If you're working with Flexbox or Grid layout, Go to the layout tab and draw visual markers around those elements by checking the boxes that you want to see. Back in the styles tab, if you go to the display property and its value is Flexbox or Grid, you'll see an icon that you can click on. That brings up a dialog where you can modify the layout without having to memorize a bunch of confusing CSS properties. And there's also a similar tool for box shadows, which are notoriously difficult to code by hand. But if you'd rather modify your website with something more like an actual design tool, check out the Vysbug extension. It Allows you to interact with the web page itself and modify its appearance without knowing or understanding CSS whatsoever. Now your design may look good on your machine, but how do You know it's responsive to different screen sizes. You can find out by clicking on the device toolbar. It provides a bunch of common screen sizes to choose from, or you can use the Sponsored option to resize it yourself manually, and you can even throttle the network speed here to simulate low end devices. But the fun doesn't stop there. If you're targeting mobile devices that use geolocation or motion, you can simulate things like GPS coordinates and device acceleration and motion from the sensors panel. If you're You're targeting mobile users, then you're likely building a progressive web app. The Lighthouse tool will analyze your website for performance, search engine optimization, and progressive web app features. If you pass the audit, it means your website can be installed on a mobile device just like a native app. And if you fail the audit, it It will tell you exactly what you need to address in order to make the experience for mobile users better. One of the most common issues is that a website is slow to paint the initial content, and that's usually because as it tries to load too much JavaScript and CSS. You can inspect exactly how the browser loads all of your assets by going to the network tab. It creates a waterfall graphic That shows every request the browser makes and how long it takes to fetch each one of those assets. If you're worried about performance, turn on screenshots to see how your website loads after Each request is completed. Clicking on an individual item will provide a breakdown of the response body and headers. And if you wanna dive really deep into performance, click on the timing panel. It'll They'll show you exactly how long it took to fetch something, breaking down the timing all the way to the DNS level. What you didn't know though is that there's actually a server timing API that allows you to pass more detailed information from your server to the browser. When the server timing header is present on a response, Chrome will automatically break that formation down in the browser dev tools. For the end user, there are 4 main issues when it comes to performance, response, animation, idle, and load. Lighthouse and the network panel can help you debug loading issues, but for the other 3, we'll need to analyze the actual run time performance of our code, which we can do in the Performance panel. Hit the record button, then start using your site like an end user. When you end the recording, it'll give you a breakdown of the CPU usage, frames per second, and the amount of memory allocated to the heap. If you notice a spike in CPU usage, a drop in frames per second, or a jump in memory usage, it might Indicate an area of code that needs to be optimized. To investigate further, Chrome has generated a flame chart that breaks down everything that happens on the browser's main in Thread. In other words, this is how the browser executes your JavaScript step by step. The x axis represents time and the y axis is the call stack. If the If it's really tall, it's not much of a problem. You might just be calling deeply nested functions. But if a frame is really wide, it means that something is taking a long time, in which case you should Click on it to investigate why your code sucks in more detail. Now in some cases, the main thread might be fine, but your code might create a memory leak by allocating memory to objects that you No longer need. You can tell you have a memory leak when this blue line gets bigger and bigger. But to investigate it further, let's head over to the memory Select the option for allocation instrumentation, then hit the record button. When it's done, the blue bars indicate memory that is still in use, while the gray bars indicate if memory that was garbage collected. At any point in time, you can see every object that's currently allocated to the heap. It can be sorted by size, allowing you to figure out exactly which Objects are clogging up your memory. And there you have 21 techniques to try out in Chrome Dev Tools. But here's one more bonus tip to leave you with. If you like Chrome Dev Tools, then you'll also like Brave Browser.
