Firebug like application for chrome?

Question

Are there any applications equivalent to Firbug to work on Google Chrome?

Solution 1

Ctrl-Shift-J will display the built in JavaScript console.

Plugins are coming soon

Solution 2

You can embed Firebug Lite into your web pages to get Firebug features in non-FF browsers.

Solution 3

Chrome has it's own DOM-explorer built in I believe.

Solution 4

If don't like the Chrome's console you may use Firebug Lite bookmarklet : http://getfirebug.com/lite.html

Solution 5

Firebug Lite now exists as a native Chrome extension.

It has some limitations, but I much prefer it to the bookmarklet and hopefully the missing functionality will come in time.

Now we just need the plugins as well :D

Right-click on the document and select "Inspect element".

Sounds nice, it just works on the markup level (i.e. I can select an item on the inspector window, and it will be highlighted on the page, but not vice-versa).

You shouldn't accept an answer just because it's first. You should accept it because it is the best answer to your question.

@MatrixFrog - true dat .. but his answer (IMO) is still the best. The built in Developer Tools are equivalent to FireBug's tools -- for most general things. Definitely a good start.

The better answer is CTRL+SHIFT+I instead of CTRL+SHIFT+J. The J takes one to javascript console, while the I takes one to the HTML part. But CTRL+SHIFT+I has a tab for Console as well.
