CORS Helper

Lightweight CORS web development tool allows developers to modify Ajax responses Access-Control-Allow-Origin:*.
What is CORS Helper?
The 'CORS Helper' is a potent Chrome extension designed for developers. It facilitates the modification of Ajax responses through the adjustment of Access-Control-Allow-Origin:*. This means that developers can set varying return values to enable user access to specified resources from different source servers. Custom values for HTTP response headers can also be set up. CORS Helper also provides a feature for specific origin setting, like http://localhost:3000. Once installed, it's easy to enable the 'cross-source resource sharing' feature by clicking the icon in the top right corner.
