Replay's console is similar to console you know and love in Chrome DevTools, except there are a couple of new tricks.
The biggest new trick is the ability to fast forward and rewind to any message by clicking the blue buttons that appear when hovering on a line in the console.
You can jump between console messages generated from your application, or ones you’ve added with Replay’s print statements feature.
Replay's console terminal lets you evaluate expressions like you would in a browser console. You can think of this like a playground for running JavaScript expressions and operators.
In general, expressions will be evaluated in the global context. When you are paused at a line of code, the terminal will use the current pause frame or selected frame in the call stack.
Type in the console by the >> icon to evaluate an expression.
<aside>
💡 In the example below, we are paused on a specific marker for an instance of line 6 within drawMatrix . Because we are paused, the expression shift evaluates to 275.
Notice the expression evaluates at that moment in time in the console, before the next function execution occurs.

Click the trashcan icon in the console to clear any evaluations and results.
