habra alguna alternativa, use años y que lastima que ahora ya sera disponible en Chrome :(

Useful extension! Using it along with SuperDev Pro. Please upgrade it to MV3, or it will soon be disabled.

I'm gonna give it a 4. It is a very useful tool and it has helped me pickup the main items in code. For a JS Image Gallery it insisted that the alt tags were missing when they weren't as the images are loaded dynamically on click and the trigger image is a button click with "aria-src". Love some feedback on that. Sometimes there is one problem not six and the first one causes the other 5 and that is not as clear though that is nitpicking the internet I think.
