Ask HN: What do you use for debugging JavaScript (e.g., Firebug)?

2 points by rob 16y ago

I'm starting to take JavaScript more seriously and learn it (not just jQuery or a framework), and I'm not sure what the best tool is for debugging it. I use Chrome as my default browser, and noticed that both it and Safari have their own developer tools that appear similar to Firebug for Firefox.<p>Are any of these necessarily better than the other, or does it come down to personal preference?

They are close to equal in features, as of the last round of browsers. I prefer firebug just because I have used it forever and am a creature of habit.
