Must Have Firefox Extensions
Over a developers time, you aquire a taste for the right tools. Some are more useful than others, and some you just can’t live without. Here are my minimum requirements for a suitable Firefox browser capable of developing and debugging todays websites:
- ColorZilla – The very handy color selector tool that sits in the statusbar.
- Download Statusbar – Downloading just isn’t the same without this gem.
- Firebug – If you don’t know what this is you are really missing out. Not just for Javascript developers, this tool can manipulate the dom allowing you to hack websites, if that’s your thing…
- HTML Validator – This validator is handy for getting your HTML up to spec.
- IE View Lite – Ever wanted to view a page in IE but couldn’t be bothered copying and pasting te URL?
- MeasureIt – A cool measuring tool for the browser.
- Web Developer – Also an essential tool, with many features for programmers.
There’s something stangely familiar about this post… ;)
yeah I didn’t bother finding yours… i have to format 3 pc’s this week, got sick of looking for them…
one of them was my laptop – now pepsi free!
It got fixed?
Bet you thought you had a new lappy on the way!
I prefer this one to a new one (cause the new one wouldn’t be as good, i’m sure)
I’d like to suggest you adding FoxMarks (syncs and backs up bookmarks across multiple computers). It’s really useful when browsing not at home. :)
