What is your favourite browser for development

Last updated on July 10, 2019 1 Comment

What is your favourite browser for development? This post isn’t like my usual posts.  It’s not a tutorial or review of a product. It’s a post with me just venting a little bit.  I use to love using Google Chrome but am now finding it to be more and more of a pain in the attic.

I found out how to disable the cache in Chrome.  So Chrome and I are friends again. Learn more here. Download Chrome here.

My biggest complaint has got to be how aggressive their cache is.  It makes it very frustrating to develop with Chrome. How many times have you made corrections to the CSS and seen that those correction do not take affect in Chrome?  Have you wasted time trying to fix it only to end up discovering that it was only the cache?

I have begun the switch from Chrome to Firefox.  So long Chrome, it was nice knowing you.

I especially like that Firefox has amazing support for CSS Grid and that their cache is not insanely aggressive like Chromes is.

Tell me what you think by commenting below.

    Still Chrome can not beat Firefox… and has not been able to do so for the last 10 years 🙂
