Chrome DevTools: Elements Console Network
Navigate the Elements, Console, and Network panels to inspect styles, debug JavaScript errors, and monitor HTTP requests.
Opening DevTools Efficiently
Right-click any element and choose Inspect to open DevTools with that element selected. F12 toggles the panel. Cmd+Shift+C (Mac) or Ctrl+Shift+C (Windows) enters inspect mode directly without opening the full panel.
Elements Panel — DOM Inspector
The Elements panel shows the live, parsed DOM tree — not the raw HTML source. It reflects JavaScript modifications. Hover over nodes to highlight them on the page. Double-click to edit HTML inline.
