Please let us know if you'd like to see the devtools improved!
Also, the devtools are actually a React app (https://github.com/devtools-html/debugger.html https://github.com/devtools-html/debugger.html), and this means that you can hack on them using ... your devtools (and any other HTML/JS/React tooling you like)! And you can hack on them in any browser, and use them to debug any browser (however some browsers may not support the same debugger protocol features the Firefox devtools support). They're super easy to work on and it's really fun.
(Of course, there's also a devtools "server" on the firefox side that responds to the queries of the React devtools client, and hacking on that is harder, but a lot of the stuff can be done without needing to touch this)
- matty22 9y agoI really wish I could create my own theme for the dev tools. I just can't get into the colors of the existing themes. The dark theme is too dark/not enough contrast between background color and text colors (pastel fonts on dark bg). The light and firebug themes are too light and don't have enough contrast between background color and text colors (pastel fonts on white bg). The lack of bg/font contrast in the dev tools always drives me back to Chrome despite really wanting to be a Firefox user.
- vatotemking 9y agoServes me well at this point. Maybe other devs can chime in. Love the work you guys put on FF and Rust btw, cheers!
