en The only way to debug webgl. Can't imagine learning without it. Also helpful while debugging opengl code compiled to wasm. Can't believe google is going to delete it from store

en Man this thing is SO GOOD. It literally saved performance of my games, because i was able to actually debug it and test things, instead of random guesses. DEVS, I LOVE YOU!

en Doesn't work in any browser. Cant select a canvas. "Please, select a canvas in the list above" but doesn't ever populate that list, so its not usable as of Jan 2024.

en Broken layout, "Please, select a canvas in the list above." while there is no list. It is broken and not working.

en Spector.js is the best-of-breed tool for understanding and debugging arbitrary WebGL applications. It's even useful when debugging issues in the browser itself - it helps narrow down the sequence of WebGL calls that lead to incorrect rendering. Thank you for creating this extension and maintaining it over so many years!
