* **Debugging tools**. Playwright works with the [editor debugger and browser developer tools](debug.md) to pause execution and inspect the web page.
* **Language bindings**. Playwright is also available in [Python](https://github.com/microsoft/playwright-python) and [C#](https://github.com/hardkoded/playwright-sharp).

## Limitations
* **Legacy Edge and IE11 support**. Playwright does not support legacy Microsoft Edge or IE11 ([deprecation notice](https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/microsoft-365-blog/microsoft-365-apps-say-farewell-to-internet-explorer-11-and/ba-p/1591666)). The new Microsoft Edge (on Chromium) is supported.
* **Java language bindings**: The Playwright API cannot be used in Java or Ruby today. This is a temporary limitation as Playwright is built to support bindings for any language.
* **Test on real mobile devices**: Playwright uses desktop browsers to emulate mobile devices. If you are interested in running on real mobile devices, please [upvote this issue](https://github.com/microsoft/playwright/issues/1122).
