Would be nice to add the JavaScript console for testing or what are the shortcuts to get to it?

I assume you mean developer tools when you say javascript console. F12 will open that. Or is that not what you meant?
Hey Thanks, doxtu, I like it better when it is not opening in another window (like in FF with ctrl-shift-k in Windows) but yes this is what I was looking for since I am a game programmer and wanted to test in this browser. Each browser has a different way to activate the dev tools and I could not find what they were in Brave.
Thanks for the input!

**Did you search for similar issues before submitting this one?**
Yes
**Descri… be the issue you encountered:**
As a web developer which main browser currently is Brave I find using the developer tools (F12) frequently to inspect the webpage HTML and console output. Currently pressing F12 brings up the developer tools as a separate window. Chrome has option to attach the developer tools to the related window or even the tab you are inspecting. Brave does not have that option, making it pain switching between IDE and the browser window if you want to continiously inspect and observe the opened page.
**Expected behavior:**
Brave should allow attaching the developer tools (F12) in the relevant tab frame that was inspected.
- Platform (Win7, 8, 10? macOS? Linux distro?):
All
- Brave Version:
All
- Steps to reproduce:
1. Open a webpage
2. Press F12
3. Observe the result
- Screenshot if needed:
Chrome:

Brave:

- Any related issues:
I added your comment as +1 and likely it’s coming in future release.
And like @doxtu said, to open dev-tools, you can use F12
or Ctrl + Shift + I
or Menu > View > Toogle Developer Tools .
Hope that can help,
Thank you,
