Javascript Consoles are fun, beautiful and have great potential. You should know how to use it!

What is the Javascript console?

The JavaScript console is a command line interface in your browser that can execute snippets of code.

It can be very useful for a developer or a person who knows what it is meant for.

It can be equally harmful for someone who tries to use it based on a stranger’s instructions and doesn’t know what it is meant for!

There are different ways to access console of your browser based on Operating system you are using:

1. WINDOWS: Most common way is simply hit [F12] when on your browser window, it will open the “Developer Tools”. Second Tab in Developer tools will be “Console”.
2. MAC-OS: [⌘ + Options + i] is the key combination for Developer Tools.
3. It works for Chrome and mostly all other browsers.
4. Another way is to right-click on the browser window and click the “Inspect” option. It will do the same.
5. You can also use Menu options of the browser application.
