I actually prefer the Firefox dev tools these days. One thing that I really like is the edit and resend functionality[0]. Quite useful when quickly testing API calls. I know you can use other tools in Chrome to do the same, but I like that it’s built in. Good to see improvements in the Chrome dev tools nonetheless!

I like Firefox too, but chrome still displays JSON objects in the console very nicely. I haven't found a good way to do this in FF yet. Do you know of a way?

If it is a GET request, just open it in a new tab. Firefox has a built-in json viewer (no extensions required).

Eg. open this in a new tab: http://httpbin.org/get

IDK man, afaik there's no way to prettify API responses in a Response tab.
