Personally I’m pretty frustrated with the way it works. I’ve noticed all of the following , and at least some of these apply to dev tools too. I don’t like the way Google controls the internet with Chrome, but at least its dev tools just work.

  • Sometimes when I try to use the element picker tool it actually clicks the element instead of selecting it in the toolbox
  • I can’t change selectors in CSS files in the sidebar, I have to go the style editor (Chrome lets me do this)
  • I can’t easily copy HTML attributes, if I double click on an attribute, the text is selected but when I press CMD C, it copies the entire tag with all of its attributes.
  • A lot of the time CSS properties I write just don’t apply and isn’t crossed out. Its like it just has a hard time doing that.

    I’ve been using the Inspector and Console features for years and haven’t found that these things bother me, but all I’ve known is Firefox’s devtools. Recently took another look at the Debugger and found it to be very useful for React development. That, combined with the redux devtools extension, is very powerful.
