Is available as "Scratchpad" <https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Tools/Scratchpad>. Also, you can write multi-line scripts directly into the command line by pressing Shift+ Enter. > firequery > Got ported to the DevTools <https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/firequery/>. > events panel > Events can be displayed by clicking the 'ev' icon next to an element <https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Tools/Page_Inspector/How_to/Examine_event_listeners>. Besides that there is also a request to add an *Events* panel like in Firebug <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1226640>. > console.group > Works the same as in Firebug, as well as all the other functions of the console API <https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/console>. Only the output doesn't look the same in all cases, for which I've filed a bug <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1269730>. > "Firefox DevTools" is not a substitute, that's just something they have > imposed on us > The switch to multiple processes in Firefox <https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Firefox/Multiprocess_Firefox> would have required huge changes to the Firebug codebase and the Firebug Working Group didn't have the resources to compete with the DevTools, so the decision was made to merge it. I was not happy with that decision, so I left the team <https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/firebug-working-group/6PulwrKtmtE>. Having said that, the Firefox DevTools got quite powerful over the years. In my opinion, their UX is still not as good as Firebug's, but therefore they have a lot of features Firebug (and also the Chrome Devtools) is missing. So it's definitely worth trying them out. The Firefox DevTools team is also trying to close the gaps between their tools and Firebug (see bug 991806 <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=991806>). So, if you're missing something Firebug had, you should file it as a blocker of that bug <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=Firefox&blocked=991806>.
