Isn’t it nice when your tools just work…

Tuesday, June 19th, 2007

I can’t say enough good things about Firebug.  It’s been an absolute godsend for me while putting together this TurboGears project.  Every last little bit of communication between the browser and the server can be examined and profiled, every bit of html and css can be identified, queried, and even modified, right in the browser.   I now can’t imagine trying to debug an AJAX app without it.

As far as I know, the author is basically one guy working in his spare time.  I’m not sure if this is a testament to the power of open source, or the strength of the underlying mozilla platform, or what, but I’m once again amazed that the open source world can produce tools of this caliber and make them available for free.
