Viewing Server-Sent Events in Firefox

SSE is a simple and straight-forward alternative to WebSockets when you need a one-way channel for events coming from the server.

In Chrome Dev Tools' Network tab, you can click the resource (url) where the SSE originates from and view the stream in a tab of its own. I cannot seem to find this functionality in Firefox.

Is there a simple way of viewing server-sent events in Firefox, that doesn't require me to change the source code (inserting logging statements)?

Firefox 82 and onwards should be able to show SSE messages in the Network > Response tab of the file which is sending those events.

Firefox (as of version 67) does not support this feature yet. Though there is an enhancement request for this filed at https://bugzil.la/1405706.
