These are strange times we live in. Hence this will be a smaller update than usual.
Here's to hoping everyone who reads this and their loved ones is fine.

Console

  • Fixed a nasty bug where you couldn’t expand objects in a Set (bug)

  • When you have the evaluation context selector pref turned on (devtools.webconsole.input.context) , we now set a different style to the button if a context different than “Top” is selected (bug)

  • Switching context now updates the instant evaluation result (bug)

  • CodeMirror editors (console input, style editor) now respect the ui.caretBlinkTime config (bug)

  • Huge thanks to Aman Verma for their work on making the parser used by the  autocomplete popup much better ( bug 1616306)

  • Patricia Lee added a “Reveal in inspector” context menu entry on logged elements (bug 1612276)

  • Expressions longer than 5 lines are now collapsed, so they don’t take as much space in the output, thanks to Samarjeet (bug 1578212). You can still expand them if needed.

  • Baku just landed a patch that will group all “sameSite” cookie warning/info messages, so they won’t spam the console (bug 1622306)

  • Instant Evaluation will be enabled in Firefox 75 (bug 1603358). Congrats to the team for this shared effort and thanks to the QA team that ran extensive tests to make sure it is rock solid.
