## Description

KnockoutJS Context Hover is a powerful Chrome extension designed to assist developers working with KnockoutJS. By activating the extension via right-click on any page running KnockoutJS, developers can view the hovered element's KnockoutJS context, HTML tags, and attributes seamlessly. Its rich feature set enables traversing complex objects and arrays, setting variable and observable values, converting variables into observables, and refreshing KO bindings instantly.

Additional functionalities include logging context objects directly into the DevTools console, mouse-following shortcuts, live context toggling, and executing functions with a click. This tool streamlines the debugging and development process, making KnockoutJS projects easier to manage and troubleshoot.
