It was good when it worked but I can't get the popup to show anymore. Will try on a fresh Chrome install and see if that helps.

I like this plugin very much, I am a seasoned dev and this plugin helps me to quickly figure what JS framework(s) a site is using, yes sometimes it doesn't work but I think thats still ok!
