{{APIRef}} {{Non-standard_header}}

The **`Window.dump()`** method logs messages to the browser's standard output (`stdout`). If the browser was started from a terminal, output sent to `dump()` will appear in the terminal.

Output from `dump()` is _not_ sent to the browser's developer tools console. To log to the developer tools console, use [`console.log()`](/en-US/docs/Web/API/console/log_static).
