  1. Nice list with functionality that's essential for UX professionals, but installing a bunch of extentions can really slow down your browser. If you're looking for something that combines all of these in a browser that is really focused on designers and developers, check out the app I'm building: Polypane.app. It lets you quickly find fonts, show your site in multiple (synced) viewports, make screenshots, emulate color blindness and other visual deficiencies (like Glaucoma).

    If you're looking for something to quickly get all the colors, images and fonts details of a site, I built a free app that does that and then lets you export them to XD, Figma and code: https://superposition.design
