| # console-browserify [](https://travis-ci.org/browserify/console-browserify) |
| |
| Emulate console for all the browsers |
| |
| ## Install |
| |
| You usually do not have to install `console-browserify` yourself! If your code runs in Node.js, `console` is built in. If your code runs in the browser, bundlers like [browserify](https://github.com/browserify/browserify) or [webpack](https://github.com/webpack/webpack) also include the `console-browserify` module when you do `require('console')`. |
| |
| But if none of those apply, with npm do: |
| |
| ``` |
| npm install console-browserify |
| ``` |
| |
| ## Usage |
| |
| ```js |
| var console = require("console") |
| // Or when manually using console-browserify directly: |
| // var console = require("console-browserify") |
| |
| console.log("hello world!") |
| ``` |
| |
| ## API |
| |
| See the [Node.js Console docs](https://nodejs.org/api/console.html). `console-browserify` does not support creating new `Console` instances and does not support the Inspector-only methods. |
| |
| ## Contributing |
| |
| PRs are very welcome! The main way to contribute to `console-browserify` is by porting features, bugfixes and tests from Node.js. Ideally, code contributions to this module are copy-pasted from Node.js and transpiled to ES5, rather than reimplemented from scratch. Matching the Node.js code as closely as possible makes maintenance simpler when new changes land in Node.js. |
| This module intends to provide exactly the same API as Node.js, so features that are not available in the core `console` module will not be accepted. Feature requests should instead be directed at [nodejs/node](https://github.com/nodejs/node) and will be added to this module once they are implemented in Node.js. |
| |
| If there is a difference in behaviour between Node.js's `console` module and this module, please open an issue! |
