VisBug is an open source browser extension offering web design debug tools akin to FireBug but tailored for designers. It enables users to point, click, and tinker by editing or styling any webpage in real time, treating the page like an artboard. Designers can inspect styles, spacing, alignment, and accessibility details straight on live sites across any device size. With features supporting text editing, image replacement, and simulation of latency, internationalization, and media queries, VisBug empowers designers and content creators to make informed frontend decisions without developer dependencies. It bridges design tool interactions directly into the browser, enhancing workflows and facilitating responsive, edge-case-friendly web design.

Extension safety

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

VisBug does not require any sensitive permissions.

Risk impact analysis details

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that an Edge add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Edge add-on reputation on Edge Add-on Store, the amount of time the Edge add-on has been around, and other signals about the Edge add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing an Edge add-on.

VisBug is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
