QuinnHOST
I
ThorstenHOST
love DevTools, like as much as anybody.
ThorstenHOST
And then the first time I used the cursor autocomplain, there was this moment of, oh shit, like all of that stuff that I'm doing in Vim does not matter.
ThorstenHOST
Like it does not matter how fast I can jump.
Paul ThurrottHOST
You know, if you count, like, Exchange, SharePoint, Skype for Business, et cetera, uh, probably in the 250 range.
Paul ThurrottHOST
DevTools, 22.
Paul ThurrottHOST
Azure, just 12, right? Which is kind-
Richard CampbellHOST
Yeah
Paul ThurrottHOST
You know, if you count, like, Exchange, SharePoint, Skype for Business, et cetera, uh, probably in the 250 range.
Paul ThurrottHOST
DevTools, 22.
Paul ThurrottHOST
Azure, just 12, right? Which is kind of sc- kind of crazy.
Paul ThurrottHOST
It's kind of-
Sarah DrasnerGUEST
Yeah, I mean, the DevTools for Agents stuff is really exciting.
Sarah DrasnerGUEST
If you're working with WebMCP, sometimes we get a lot of people asking us, how should I be debugging this? I think Chrome DevTools for Agents or DevTools MCP is a really great way to send an agent off to do a bunch of things.
Sarah DrasnerGUEST
It also invokes Lighthouse for Agents.
Sarah DrasnerGUEST
It also can perform audits for you.
Sarah DrasnerGUEST
So like there's a number of different ways you can do it.
Sarah DrasnerGUEST
Some are like headless, some are like directly in page and those are cool.
Wes BosHOST
And what's that Chrome extension called? Is that just the Chrome DevTools MCP extension that's been rolled into that or is that the separate web MCP extension?
Sarah DrasnerGUEST
Yeah, there's one that's right directly in Chrome DevTools.
Kamran AyoubHOST
And that's only if you're hosting it on a network interface that people can access.
Kamran AyoubHOST
And there is a Nuxt DevTools remote code execution, which is technically critical, but it's DevTools only.
Kamran AyoubHOST
So low exploitability.
Kamran AyoubHOST
Yeah, you're affected if you run Nuxt dev with the dev tools enabled.
Aman VerjeeHOST
These are the investments they just made.
Aman VerjeeHOST
One is Hugging Face, which sits, I would say, right below the application layer, not quite, but in a DevTools box right below the application layer.
Aman VerjeeHOST
And then Mercore, which is data intelligence, which... that sits alongside the LLMs.
Aman VerjeeHOST
Well, who else does Nvidia bet on? These are all the guys where they have investments or partnerships.
Jordy ScholingGUEST
And what I can tell, if you're working on a staging environment, a development environment, it's fine to use Lighthouse because you do not have any real users on a staging environment.
Jordy ScholingGUEST
So then it's fine to paste your staging URL in Lighthouse or use Lighthouse via DevTools.
Jordy ScholingGUEST
and get sort of a checklist of what you've forgotten or what you still need to improve, whatever.
Jordy ScholingGUEST
But once you go to production, so the live website, you want to look at Chrome data, so the Chrome user experience, ideally to take it a step further as room data.
Chris BalestrasHOST
They're like, we got to get Marcus on.
Chris BalestrasHOST
And I'm definitely a DevTools nerd a little bit and like PLG nerd.
Chris BalestrasHOST
So your background is definitely great for it.
Chris BalestrasHOST
So I started with a positive impression of you.

Marcus HolmGUEST
Yeah, as you're familiar, Chris, I mean, I try to pattern the recruiting after the ICE framework, right? So if I can achieve intelligence and character and coachability and experience, I'd say like the character piece and intelligence piece.
Marcus HolmGUEST
So in other words, like the raw materials to me are more important than the experiences because I think a lot of this stuff is coachable and teachable.
Marcus HolmGUEST
And there are plenty of reps who I've hired in past lives where they're new to DevTools and they'd never sold to this persona before.
Marcus HolmGUEST
But because they were smart, they were driven, they were curious, they were resilient, all of a sudden they were able to pick it up relatively quickly.
Thomas SteinerGUEST
And you can just test it locally.
Thomas SteinerGUEST
It even has DevTools support, so you can inspect what is going on.
Thomas SteinerGUEST
This is an early prototype.
Thomas SteinerGUEST
It's not official at all.
Hendrik KrackHOST
be frank, but there are more people building UIs, there are more people building with AI.
Hendrik KrackHOST
How do you see the role of the developer shifting in the next year to come? And how do you see the influx of new AI-enabled developers or vibe coders playing into your business as well as our business as DevTool
Simon FarshidGUEST
companies? I think there's going to be a shift to more full-stack developers and everyone will need to become full-stack and own both the front-end, the back-end, the data structures.
Simon FarshidGUEST
Obviously there are going to be different interests, but I think that's a good place you can grow as an engineer today.
