What is Type Zebra?

Type Zebra is a Chrome extension that operates as a local font explorer. This application enables you to easily preview and test the typefaces installed on your computer in a web browser. With its user-friendly interface, you can type any phrase or sentence to see how it looks in a particular font, and adjust the font size according to your needs. Additionally, it features a sample layout to give you an idea of how the font will appear in different text elements such as titles, subtitles, paragraph text and blockquotes. Registration is not necessary, with promising features such as font categorization, text formatting options, and font pairing and comparison in the works.

Nice little utility. I would recommend making the font size a slider or some other approach to allow any px size. Would also add a colour picker to change font colour.
