Umar Hansa was my go-to on devtools for years.
You can Cmd+F "Devtools" here and find some real gems umaar.com/dev-tips/.
It looks like he created a paid course moderndevtools.com too, which I may take now that I know about it! I learned a ton from him for free.

Some good replies and articles in the thread. If you're interested in a deeper look, I'd highly recommend @samwho.dev's article, which has some great visualizations of how they work and how to design an effective one
