Perfect.. Works for me
by Kelvin Ugbana, 2025-03-03

Pretty good, but doesn't seem to display gap information unless it's in a grid/flex (which is the main information I want to view). It also doesn't allow you to scroll when active, so you have to toggle it off (and reopen the side panel, if you had it opened).
