Benefits of Consoles

The various benefits of consoles are:

  • DOM manipulation: You can manipulate the DOM of the web page or preview various DOM elements and their values. Consoles come with JS support, so plain JS methods and properties can be used for DOM manipulation.
  • Listing all possible issues: The console helps you view the different warnings, errors, and issues on the webpage. This helps during development as it clearly explains the problems and provides links to open files in the sources tab.
  • Easy distinction: With the color-coded logs and the filter, it’s very easy to differentiate the various logs and focus only on the type you want to work on. If you want to work on error logs, just filter the error logs.
