When I work with frontend my not-so-secret trick is to do all development on Firefox.

If it works in Firefox it usually works in all modern browsers, so even without doing extensive cross browser testing I know it will just work.

I also catch most cross browser bugs from people who use Chrome.




If only that were true. Seen a fair share of IE only, Edge only, FF only and Safari only bugs :-o


Good point. It’s a minefield these days isn’t it.


Thanks for the suggestion. I usually try to remember to at least do a smoke test in the other major browsers (Firefox, Safari and Edge) but didn't get chance this time.
