Developer is a console variable in the Source engine that enables various levels of developer debugging options. This includes entity diagnostic information which will be printed to the console and also at the top of the screen.

Syntax: developer <value>

Valid values are:

  • 0: turn debugging mode off (default)
  • 1: some debugging information
  • 2: verbose debugging information

Number one will enable developer messages to print to your console, number two will do the same, except now the messages will write to the top-right of your HUD.

Developer mode can also be enabled via the -dev or -developer command line switches.
