Genuinely curious: what are you developing that you don’t ever need the network tab?
- kall 6y agoI don‘t know, like, average SPA stuff, a lot of React. I just considered what the network tab actually is and I have of course used it before, to work on the loading speed of sites, but haven‘t done that for a while. The only performance work I‘ve done recently is with react profiler. I have never used it to inspect API requests, which I assume it can do? I‘m comfortable with Charles proxy, which is likely overkill. My usage is maybe 45% elements, 45% console, 5 % source/debugger, 3% storage, 2% network. Somehow I dislike elements UI in chrome. Now I‘m thinking that I may be missing out and should look at what it does and what chrome could give me. Edit: after playing around with it for a few minutes: I have in fact been missing out and using Charles and Paw way too much when I could have done it way quicker in the browser. I hope I don't have to switch to chrome now.
