CSS debugging tool with an unpronounceable name.
If you are using a bundler:
npm install debucsser
Alternatively: download debucsser.js in /module folder and link it in your HTML.
A chrome extension is under development
Debucsser is a simple CSS debugging tool made to be unobtrusive in your workflow.
I often find myself applying an "outline" to a lot of elements on the page to see their dimensions.
With Debucsser I simply hold CTRL and move my mouse around to see the dimensions in px and apply an outline class to every element I hover.
If you hold CTRL + SHIFT you apply the outline class to all the elements on the page by adding a global class.
You can configure some parameters.
I find handy the possibility to specify a custom class I want to apply to different elements without the need to comment and uncomment the my css files.
// only if you installed via NPM
import Debucsser from 'debucsser';
// pass all the custom properties you want
const config = {
color: 'palevioletred', // color of the outline
width: '4px', // width of the outline
grayscaleOnDebugAll: true, // apply grayscale filter to every element
customClass: 'exampleClass', // a class existent in your stylesheet
}
// init the debugger
const debug = new Debucsser(config).init();When you have done this, simply hold CTRL or CTRL + SHIFT and move the mouse around on the page.
