Hi
My javascript device game coding is ramping up well.
I read that it's best not to rely on an IDE's internal runtime environment, but to use an actual browser. No surprise.
I'm uncertain whether to use Safari, FF or Chrome for my JS Phaser game dev testing on my MacBook. One of them can do various-device simulations?
What are the advantages/disadvantages of each? I seem to remember a comment somewhere suggesting that Chrome is best. Maybe that was just a casual opinion? Is there a javascript dev add-on needed? My Safari has a 'Develop' menu item.
This page details how to make use of them, but which one is preferred?  
here
Thanks

Is Safari or Chrome preferred as a test environment for device game development w simulations?

Game programming is the software development of video games. Game programming requires substantial skill in software engineering as well as specialization in simulation, computer graphics, artificial intelligence, physics, audio programming, and input. Like other software, game development programs are generated from source code to the actual program by a compiler. Source code can be developed with almost any text editor, but most professional game programmers use a full integrated development environment (IDE).

Chrome is a free web browser created by Google. Originally released in 2008, it has grown to become the most used desktop web browser (as of October 2016).

JavaScript is a dynamic, object-based language commonly used for client-side scripting in web browsers. Recently, server side JavaScript frameworks have also emerged. JavaScript runs on nearly every operating system and  in almost every mainstream web browser.

Web browsers are applications used primarily to display documents, files and media from the Internet, identified by a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) that can be a page, image, video or other file. Some browsers require the use of add-ons or extensions to safely render the information they receive; others have systems built into them to perform the same functions.
