Description Marc-Aurèle DARCHE 2013-01-11 05:54:37 PST 
At the moment when developing a Web app for the desktop (that is not on an Android device) the only way to debug is to start the Web runtime with the Error console [1]. 

This request is thus:
When running the Web runtime from the command line the console methods [2] should output to stdout.

We could override the console object and log to stdout, if we want this.
Comment 2 Marco Castelluccio [:marco] 2013-08-13 11:43:57 PDT 
We will support a developer mode with console, debugger and all the tools available in Firefox.
