Firefox not supported?

I wanted to test this but if I decline file access I can't do anything. What gives? Do you want people to understand your product? Demo your product.

Why do you need file access to sell me?

Closed immediately.

btw. I am your target market.

Firefox not supported and you want to see my local files right away? Nope, not trying this shit.

Support Firefox and do not require filesystem access. Or don't. I'm not your mom. And also not your user.

I skimmed through a couple of youtube videos, would I be right in thinking the tracing is done always manually here.

I wonder (outside HN) what percentage of people who need to reverse engineer a PCB are also people who insist on Firefox. Probably smaller than the percentage of those people who want to save results to their local filesystem.

On Firefox, after bypassing the ominous warnings, when I tried to create a new project and choose a directory to save the project files, I get

  > Directory picker is not supported in this browser. Please use a modern browser like Chrome or Edge.

While I appreciate the early warning, so that the user doesn't spend too much effort only to later realize that they can't save their files to disk, I don't appreciate the implicit labeling of Firefox as not being a "modern" browser.

If you're developing a web app with APIs only available in certain browsers, just say/admit so.
