Requires a paid license. Link to website is dead though – so even if you wanted to get a license, you just can't!

Edit: Clearly the author has no intention of updating it. I think it should be reported and taken off the chrome store so that it doesn't catch unsuspecting new victims. Works for most part but desperately needs an update. Last updated on The tailwind version it uses is far behind the current version and hence a lot of new tailwind features don't work (like min-* and max-*). Since this was not a free plugin but a paid one, it cannot be allowed to fall this much behind the current versions. Will rate 5 stars if they update it.
