Does console have dev tools and cheat mode?

Just as the title says. I been googling it and can't get much info, I know PC and console are different but how different? I own it on steam and I'm debating on getting it again for console when im in bed relaxing, there's no escape mode that is all I know, but what about other things? is there a list of what is not on console so I can decide if it's worth still buying the game a second time. I just hope it has cheats and dev tools on PS4 or Xbox One

The console build is around Alpha 35 in terms of content. It includes features like shops, mail rooms, chapels, libraries, execution, gangs, gang turf and cell quality from various late alpha updates on PC. However it lacks random events from Alpha 36, Escape Mode from Version 1 and all subsequent new features including the developer menu (which was in the final PC update less than three months ago), although the console editions already had the option to build water tiles which was new to PC in Version 2.

There are just a couple of cheats on consoles - instant riots and big heads mode.

(Basketball courts were only ever unofficial mods on PC I think.)

Thanks for the reply. I did read from a YouTube video you can have sandbox mode with unlimited funds which is ok for me

The console cheats? Looks like you've found at least one thread but here's both for reference:
