Yes Chrome stopped work

Can confirm with VS Code

Would this code help you guys?

var devtools = function() {};
devtools.toString = function() {
  if (!this.opened) {
    alert("Opened");
  }
  this.opened = true;
}

console.log('%c', devtools);
// devtools.opened will become true if/when the console is opened

It seems like it has worked for a lot of people in the past.

Working for me, Google Chrome 91.0.4472.77 (latest build)

@verone0001 How can that work? I'm on MSEdge and it doesn't. I've tested this code

var devtools = function() {};
devtools.toString = function() {
  test.textContent = 'opened';
}
setInterval(() => (
  test.textContent = 'closed',
  console.log('%c', devtools)
), 1000);

on a page with a div id="test" and it said "opened" even if I'd closed devtools. Does it happen to you?

I haven't tested it in any other browser, only followed the given steps for Chrome latest build.

@ajmeese7 It doesn't work on Firefox either. So there's still no reliable way for cross-platform check.

This library works fine for me on Firefox 96.
