Using console.log() is often the first debugging tool developers learn. However, as projects scale and bugs become complex, relying on console.log() alone slows you down.
Debugging with Browser DevTools provides advanced debugging tools that make console.log() unnecessary for many tasks. Breakpoints allow you to inspect values step by step.
Using console.table() formats complex objects or arrays into readable tables, making it easy to identify patterns or outliers.
Senior developers use structured logging libraries and APM solutions like Winston, Pino, Sentry, and VS Code Debugger for cleaner and more efficient debugging.
