The developer console activity provides a number of developer-targeted features (some of which previously existed as a separate activity):

  • XO Resources
  • Memphis
  • Log Viewer : sugar-log-viewer
  • Terminal : Linux prompt

From build 239 the activity can be started within the Sugar UI in two ways:

  • Alt =
  • Alt 0

After it is started, Alt = or Alt 0 will toggle visibility; hiding or showing the activity. It can be dismissed by clicking on the X on top right corner.

(Keyboard shortcut information can be found in the Sugar README which should be referenced to ensure the developer console keyboard shortcuts have not changed.)

This partial screenshot illustrates how the developer console appeared in build 239:
