# Browser Console

Discovering the browser console location in today's contemporary browsers is as follows.

### Google Chrome

To launch the developer console in Google Chrome, initiate the Chrome Menu located in the upper-right-hand corner of the browser window and then opt for More Tools > Developer Tools.

Alternatively, on macOS, you can employ the keyboard shortcut Option + ⌘ + C, while on Windows/Linux, you can use Shift + CTRL + C.
