+# Handle errors in ASP.NET Core Blazor Hybrid
+
+This article explains how to use [browser developer tools](https://developer.mozilla.org/docs/Glossary/Developer_Tools) with Blazor Hybrid apps.
+
+[!INCLUDE[](~/blazor/includes/blazor-hybrid-preview-notice.md)]
+
+## Browser developer tools with .NET MAUI Blazor
+
+Ensure your current Blazor Hybrid project is configured to support browser developer tools. Add the following to your `CreateMauiApp` method. The `CreateMauiApp` method should be within your main `Program` or `Startup` file and contain `services.AddMauiBlazorWebView()`.
+
+```csharp
+#if DEBUG
+			services.AddBlazorWebViewDeveloperTools();
+#endif
+```
+
+:::zone pivot="windows"
+
+To use browser developer tools with a Windows app:
+
+1. Run the .NET MAUI Blazor app for Windows and navigate to an app page that uses a `BlazorWebView`.
+1. Use the keyboard shortcut <kbd>Ctrl</kbd>+<kbd>Shift</kbd>+<kbd>I</kbd> to open browser developer tools.
+1. Developer tools provide a variety of features for working with apps, including which assets the page requested, how long assets took to load, and the content of loaded assets. The following example shows the **Console** tab to see the console messages, which includes any exception messages generated by the framework or developer code:

+
+:::zone-end
+
+:::zone pivot="android"
+
+To use browser developer tools with an Android app:
+
+1. Start the Android emulator and navigate to an app page that uses a `BlazorWebView`.
+1. Open Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge.
+1. Navigate to `chrome://inspect/#devices` (Google Chrome) or `edge://inspect/#devices` (Microsoft Edge).
+1. Select the **`inspect`** link button to open developer tools. The following example shows the **DevTools** page in Microsoft Edge:

+
+:::zone-end
+
+:::zone pivot="ios"
+
+To use Safari developer tools with an iOS app:
+
+1. Open desktop Safari.
+1. Select the **Preferences** > **Advanced** > **Show Develop** menu item.
+1. Run the .NET MAUI Blazor app in the iOS simulator and navigate to an app page that uses a `BlazorWebView`.
+1. Return to desktop Safari. Select **Develop** > **Simulator** > **0.0.0.0**. If multiple entries for **0.0.0.0** are present, select the entry that highlights the `BlazorWebView`. The `BlazorWebView` is highlighted in blue in the iOS simulator when the correct **0.0.0.0** entry is selected.
+

+
+1. The **Web Inspector** window appears for the `BlazorWebView`.

+
+:::zone-end
+
+:::zone pivot="macos"
+
+Using browser developer tools with Mac Catalyst applications isn't currently supported. Please use the guidance for [iOS](?pivots=ios) applications, as the behavior should be similar between the two platforms..
