  1. The Console can be used to log information as part of the JavaScript development process, as well as allow you to interact with a web page by carrying out JavaScript expressions within the page’s context. Essentially, the Console provides you with the ability to write, manage, and monitor JavaScript on demand.

  2. To open the JavaScript Console in Chrome, you can navigate to the menu at the top-right of your browser window signified by three vertical dots in a row. From there, you can select More Tools then Developer Tools.

This will open a panel where you can click on Console along the top menu bar to bring up the JavaScript Console if it is not highlighted already:

You can also enter into the JavaScript Console by using the keyboard shortcut CTRL + SHIFT + J on Linux or Windows, or COMMAND + OPTION + J on macOS, which will bring focus immediately to the Console.

  1. Rather than have pop-up alerts that we need to continue to click out of, we can work with JavaScript by logging it to the Console with console.log

  2. You can also work within the context of an HTML file or a dynamically-rendered page in the Console. This provides you with the opportunity to experiment with JavaScript code within the context of existing HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.

Bear in mind that as soon as you reload a page following modifying it with the Console, it will return to its state prior to your modifying the document, so make sure to save any changes you would like to keep elsewhere.
