Firebug is an addon for Firefox which lets you easily see the structure of a website.
When I was creating this website, I had a hard time finding out what function/code did what. I hadn’t used Wordpress yet but wasn’t new to the idea of messing around in code.
The code of Wordpress, I must say, is very neatly organized. At first I was taking glances and looking at what was doing what but very quickly I learned my way around the code.
If at that time I had known this little addon, and if my Firefox wasn’t bugging as it is doing now, I would have had an even easier time creating this site.
What Firebug makes you do:
- It lets you look at the code of the site
- It lets you see the whole CSS
- It lets you edit the code and shows you what the behavior is
- It has an click element button which lets you hover over the website and shows all the different parts of it, also highlights it in the code.
This tool is a must need for anyone who is maintaining a website or who is helping friends with their website.
