Best Mac browser for web development

Question

I really like Safari for my daily browsing but the development tools are not what I am looking for. Two problems with them: 1) it occasionally stops being able to evaluate expressions in the console and 2) it doesn't appear to have a way of automatically accessing event listeners.So what is the best option? Firefox or a Chromium browser? And if Chromium is there a version of the FF Deve edition for Chromium?

If you&rsquo;re doing any front end dev then you&rsquo;ll need to test against both browsers anyway.

Chrome is the dominant browser, so either Chrome or something Chrome-based, like Brave.
But then Mobile Safari is a large percentage, so Safari, as well.
And as a good netizen, you'll also want to make sure Firefox works OK.
TL;DR: Test in all of the above.
