7 Best Firefox Addons for Web Developers / Designers
Being a web developer myself, I have compiled a list of the most important Firefox addons which a Web Developer should have.
Here’s the list
- FireBug
- Web Developer
The Web Developer extension adds a menu and a toolbar to the browser with various web developer tools. - ColorZilla
A great addon for web designers
It can get the color of any point in a page, and copy it to the clipboard in various formats, which can later be used in designing softwares.

- Greasemonkey
Allows you to customize the way a webpage displays using small bits of JavaScript.

- FireFTP
It adds on an FTP client within Firefox, so you dont need any other independent software to upload via FTP.

- User Agent Switcher
Adds a menu and a toolbar button to switch the user agent of the browser.

- Live HTTP Headers
A must have for web developers when making scripts that interact with other websites.
Probably the best Addon I have found yet.
You can edit, debug, and monitor CSS, HTML, and JavaScript live in any web page with this extension
