I am used to using DOM tab to inspect global JS variables that are present on the page in Firebug. What is the equivalent of it in Chrome Developer tools?

DOM Inspector (DOMi) is a web developer tool created by Joe Hewitt and was originally included in Mozilla Application Suite as well as versions of Mozilla Firefox prior to Firefox 3. It is now included in Firefox, and SeaMonkey.
XMLHttpRequest (XHR) objects are used to interact with servers. You can retrieve data from a URL without having to do a full page refresh. This enables a Web page to update just part of a page without disrupting what the user is doing. XMLHttpRequest is used heavily in AJAX programming.
To open the developer console in Google Chrome, open the Chrome Menu in the upper-right-hand corner of the browser window and select More Tools > Developer Tools. You can also use Option + ⌘ + J (on macOS), or Shift + CTRL + J (on Windows/Linux).
Type in window, then you will see the window object with everything inside it.
p.s: window is the "top-most" object in a normal webpage. (Global scope) Since "Chrome Developer Tools" is specifically mentioned, we can safely assume that window will always be the global scope.
Press Console, then enter window. Press enter and now you can see a list of global variables, such as $ (jQuery) and document.

Yes, it's called "Properties".
