Extension summary
Allows viewing binary WebSocket frame contents, which the default DevTools does not support.
Currently the data is shown in HTML based hex view, and does not work well for large frameStore (~10K+). Considering switching to canvas based view instead.
If anyone knows an existing hex viewer module that does not use Angular, I'd be happy to use it instead.
Extension safety
Risk impact
WS Inspector requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.
Risk likelihood
WS Inspector may not be trust-worthy. Avoid installing if possible unless you really trust this publisher.
