Turn any website into a live wireframe
What is Placeholdifier?
Placeholdifier is a unique Chrome extension that allows users to effectively transform any website into a live, interactive wireframe. It operates by converting HTML elements on a page into placeholders, effectively 'hiding' the content while preserving the site's underlying structure and interactivity. This can be incredibly useful for purposes such as demos, live streaming, hiding personal information, engaging in visual regression, and more. The source code is openly available for customization and further exploration.
