Playing devil's advocate here: 
I code in IntelliJ but I must say that I really like the experience that 
the Chrome Developer Tools are providing. 
>From pure debugging point of view (stepping through the code) I actually 
prefer the Dev Tools over the IDE because with the Dev Tools I can easily 
change CSS styles, modify the DOM and see the results directly in the 
browser. 
Furthermore Chrome Dev Tools has some really good performance and profiling 
tools built in. 

There are a couple of pain points of course and things I would like to see 
changed. 
- Bi-directional breakpoints:  Currently if I want to set a breakpoint I 
have to do it inside Chrome Deve Tools. It would be nice to be able to set 
the breakpoint in my IDE and then debug inside Chrome Dev Tools and vice 
versa. 
- Sometimes Dev Tools crash or freeze (if you debug a huge project) or try 
to display an array with many values.
