Web Inspector – An extension for Chrome to easily inspect the Web
4 points by Anakin88 on July 15, 2014 | hide | past | favorite
I created this extension because many people (mainly designers) asked me before if they could get the font family used on a certain website, or if it was possible to get the URL for a background image, among others. Usually to solve this problem I would use the developer tools provided by the browser and give them the information they needed. The problem is that I couldn't tell them how to get this information because the developer tools are not intuitive for regular users, so I had to keep doing it all the time.<p>Since I was curious to know how Chrome extensions work I decided to create Web Inspector and now I'm curious to know what people think of it. Give it a try if you have time please. If you are a developer and you are curious about the implementation, on the extension page you will also find a URL for the Github project.<p>Thank you for your time ;)
