en It's pretty basic and sometimes does quirky things, but this is an indispensable tool if you're working with OPFS, as Chrome Dev Tools doesn't currently support it natively.

1. Very basic explorer that works with the tomayac test page. Seems to only support very simple listing, deleting and "downloading" of files. But not creating new files or copying files into OPFS. 2. Hangs forever on "⌛Analyzing Origin Private File System" if the page you're opening it on doesn't make use of OPFS. It would be better to show an empty filesystem instead of hanging forever. 3. Also it doesn't seem to show the OPFS files of a browser extension that is storing data in OPFS. It just hangs on "⌛Analyzing Origin Private File System" again. Apparently it's not useful for debugging browser extensions.

Simple, straightforward, and it has specific support for showing certain metadata about sqlite3 "OPFS SAH-Pool" databases (that's actually really useful for me).
