Doubt about development in firefox / firebug

2

I usually work with Chrome for website development, but currently I'm on a client that only uses Firefox and I'm noticing some differences.

I've researched but not found much about it, anyone who works the longest with Firefox can help me answer the following questions:

  • In Chrome I can edit the javascript and do a rebuild at runtime, in Firefox I could not. Is there any way to do it?

  • In Chrome, breakpoints continue even after you close the browser, it helps a lot between one day and another. In Firefox, when you close the page, the breakpoints disappear. Is there any way to keep them?

  • Any Firefox add-ons tip?

No. It is only possible that you run commands on the console or add small scripts in the URL bar, but nothing else.

The big problem of making changes to Javascript, is how these changes should be propagated, and therefore the result of a change might not reflect the result of the same case the script had just been served from the server.

No. Not at all.

  • Any Firefox add-ons tip?

Based on opinions, but come on. I think you're talking about developer extensions.

Use Firefox Developer Edition. It does not need any extension (until today at least, I did not need it).
