If you really need to use CFs with Chrome older than v48, you could try to take DevTools from Chrome 48 and run it against Chrome 47 or older. It could work with a bit of luck or with small tweaks. Running current version of DevTools against Chrome 47 is not possible I guess, that would require a lot of compatibility work (after ~2 years of development).

See "Run Chrome with your own DevTools front-end" here:

That's cool, thanks @darwin – the effort would outweigh the return for that but I appreciate you offering up the idea. If it was a case of a few shims or patches or something, I'd have maybe put together a pull request to help out. Not a problem though, just curious.
