To understand and monitor the JavaScript being used in a document (for ex. a webpage) and to write JavaScript, giving instructions to the browser. This is useful for trying out JS code, as you immediately get feedback from your inputs. You can then also save the code to a new document (as you do not change the underlying code of a live webpage with the console and instead just interact with your own browser and what he does with the webpage - temporarily and locally on your device).
