User reviews

The add-on clearly displays the CSS properties. Very often, unfortunately, only after repeated reloading of the page. This usually happens when you switch tabs. I find it good that when I click on the value of the color, it is automatically copied to the clipboard. It would also be good to copy other values e.g. such as fonts name, to the clipboard. Or to search for it with a click (possibly in a fonts directory or in a searching engine....). Good job!

Extension safety

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Fontanello requires very minimum permissions.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that an Edge add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Edge add-on reputation on Edge Add-on Store, the amount of time the Edge add-on has been around, and other signals about the Edge add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing an Edge add-on.

Fontanello has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
