This is probably my most favorite Firefox addon, as far as web development goes. It’s quite useful for those who’re into the security parts of web development, making it easier to learn about a website straight away. After clicking the flag icon next to the URL of any given website, you get access to a settings dropdown, from which you can do things like ping, whois, translate, virus scan, etc, etc. FlagfoxĪt first it might seem like an addon that provides only the information of a country where the specific website is hosted, but it’s actually much more than that. You can learn, and you can also block any of the sites that you don’t want to be tracking you. Ghostery allows you to see which sites and trackers are collecting data about you, on any given page. Ghosteryĭo you ever wonder how many 3rd party websites are able to track your information online, on any given website? I’m sure you do, especially after all the Edward Snowden thing exploded. Get analysis of specific parts of a site, or grab some additional Firebug plugins to extend the functionality. You will get a JavaScript debugging tool implemented in your browser, that will blow the socks off from anything else that’s out there. It’s basically what Chrome DevTools is to Chrome, Firebug will enable you to play around with the HTML and CSS elements of the pages in real-time. Here are my 15 favorite Firefox addons for making web development, a bit less of a pain. But, that’s part of the reason I’m here, to sort that problem out. The problem with the default addon directory on the Mozilla website is quite simple, many of the addons in the web developer category are actually addons for webmasters.Īnd, while I don’t disagree that webmasters are web developers, it would be much nicer if their sections were more narrow and specific. I have used plenty of Firefox addons over the years, to know which ones the community likes and which ones it dislikes. These days, Chrome is dominating the market, while Firefox is trying to stay as open as possible, something that appeals to developers all around the World. In 2006, when I began my web journey, Chrome didn’t exist at the time, and everyone was using Firefox as their primary web browser, with the exception of some using the IE, and Opera.
You can read the release notes for more information. It was the version 29.0 of the Mozilla Firefox web browser, which brought in a couple of changes and security fixes.
I’m here to enjoy this browser, just a few days ago, a new version was released to the public. In my eyes, it’s all media stuff, and it doesn’t affect me as much. Mozilla has definitely seen better days during its time, I’m of course relating to the recent issues it had with it’s CEO, and how that opened up the transparency of the company.
