FireBug: A Must-Have For Any Developer

Holy Crap! The folks at the Lullabot Podcast were talking about development environments for Drupal. One tool they referenced as "indispensable" was FireBug. I haven't tried it out too much yet, but man, it looks useful.

Squarely in the category of "mega-plugin" such as the Web Developer Toolbar, this FireFox plugin looks amazing. It's a JavaScript debugger. It's a DOM inspector. You can edit any part of the HTML, CSS, or JavaScript and see the instant results right in your browser. It also looks like it puts a validation thing in the bottom-right corner of my browser. The only thing that I might worry about is that it makes FireFox too bloated and slow. Find out more at the GetFireBug.com or download it from the Mozilla site.
