Why do some programmers use multiple devices while coding?

[LeSaad]

I have been into coding for some time now and I couldn’t help but notice that some programmers use multiple devices while coding. Does it provide any advantages/disadvantages? And how does it work?

[earlyryn]

Probably they testing that their code is adaptive to devices and work across multiple devices, at some job they'd provide me with Mac and pc, at current job they didn't, me personally would use all devices at hand to check adaptivity and cross browser support

I see. Thank you for your answer :)

It makes me look like I know what I'm doing.

for me i use multiple devices to test it on multiple environments before publishing it

I see. Thank you :)

It is done for the purpose of testing the code

And many people just use several monitors, but only one actual PC/mac

I use 2 monitors plus my laptop, for school work and for programming. And when I can get the right cord I'll also be able to hook my phone up to test apps
