Hi, are you a web developer or designer?

Emulation: Support emulation of popular iOS and Android devices
Our customers have an environment where most laptops run Windows 10 but most company phones are iPhones. Those who sport tablets have iPads and occasionally Android tablets. When developing for this device environment we have to consider emulation and only use real devices when testing. We are trying hard to adopt Edge as a development browser but with the current developer tools emulation only having Windows Phone devices out of the box our guys have to resort to custom configurations. Considering the market share of Windows Phone devices versus the market share of Android and iOS devices it doesn't make…

Option for ACTUAL request payload
The old version of this tool showed me the actual payload string but now shows the key/val pairs broken down and sorted alphabetically. This isn't useful for me any more. Please include an option to show the ACTUAL payload string as is built and sent.

include browser version in user agent string
Microsoft Edge on windows does not include the version of the browser but only the version of layout engine:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/64.0.3282.140 Safari/537.36 Edge/18.17763
The version should be 44.17763.1.0, since 18.17763 is the version of layout engine
I suggest something like:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/64.0.3282.140 Safari/537.36 Edge/44.17763.1.0 (EdgeHTML 18.17763)

We updated our system at work to Windows 10. At work we have the option of using old Windows 8.1 and Windows 10. because one of our software
Recently at work we upgraded to Windows 10. We still have the option of using Windows 8.1. Reason being our Software System that is pertinent to our business only works well with 8.1. There is another issue that I have found with Windows 10 and Windows 8.1 when using simultaneously. In Windows 8.1 when you click on a link to a webinar, a video, or fill out a form or application where you have to hit a submit button to send. There are many applications that will not work by clicking on the link you have to open Microsoft Edge…

Console: show web workers
Take a look at the Chrome console: You can switch the current context from the main thread to every web worker which got created. This is extremely useful for debugging workers.

Console.log() -> support for multiple, comma separated arguments
it is kind of annoying to get outputs like "test [Object object]".
this is implemented in Chrome, Safari & FF for a long time already.3 votes -
Display non-enumerable object members in the console and Watches / Locals
This feature would mirror what Chrome DevTools has, where non-enumerable members of evaluated objects are displayed in the console and Watches / Locals. To signify they are non-enumerable, the member names are greyed out.

Developer's Account
Hi, I was trying to create a developer's account and the account type was already selected for me as a business, I tried to change it to an individual but it won't let me. Anytime when I sign in with Microsoft account and try to sing up for developer's account, the account type is already selected and I can't change it. So I stopped there, I didn't create the account. How can I change that to an individual?

Enable Migration of Password from Firefox/Chrome or at least via a XML file into Edge
Enable Migration of Password from Firefox/Chrome or at least via a XML file into Edge. Chrome/Firefox lets you export the password to a XML File and this can be used to import the same into Edge. This is the main thing that is keeping me away from using Edge.

Unable to Undo code change in the Debugger.
I made a change to a javascript code in the Debugger and unable to figure out how to undo the change without refreshing the Edge browser. There should be an undo button (or a re-do button)

Debugger Change downloadscript to the actual file name downloaded
Took me a long time to figure which "downloadscript" that I need to debug from. I don't want to use the tooltip to search for my javascript code. Use of "downloadscript" is a very bad idea. Chrome and Firefox shows actual javascript file name.

Bring back classic ASP with jscript
I'm the founder of a company producing a web based EHR on classic ASP with jscript (not vbscript) since 2001. I've looked at and tried almost every platform that was or is since then (java, PHP, ASP.NET, Ruby/Rails, node, python, scala, go) and have yet to find a superior development platform.
Instead of using vbscript, we chose to use jscript. As the universal language of web development, javascript is now the only language my programmers need to know for both client and server, and every web programmer knows javascript. So, I don't have any problem finding developers. I also don't…

Option to auto-scroll in Network Debugger
Please add an option(toggle) to enable auto-scroll in the Network section of the debugger. When trying to analyse api calls it's very annoying the trigger actions in the webpage and the scroll to the end of the list in the network debugger.

It's really hard to improve my site's performance in Edge without flame graphs
The performance tools in Firefox and Chrome both have flame graphs and improving performance there is really easy. Our site is an order of magnitude slower in Edge but we have no idea why because the performance panel just says the time is being taken up by JavaScript without telling us anything else.
I assume this is already on your roadmap because I have no idea how developers at Microsoft are able to improve the performance of their web apps in Edge otherwise. Consider this a strong vote for this feature. When this is implemented, +1000 points for using an…
