Cisar: SharePoint CSR Live Edit Chrome Extension

Cisar is a Chrome Extension explicitly designed for SharePoint Developers. It hugely speeds up and streamlines the process of developing SharePoint Client Side Rendering (CSR) customizations. The live edit feature allows developers to see changes as they type, integrated seamlessly with the SharePoint page. Cisar also offers CSR-tailored intellisense. It supports Office 365, on-premise SharePoint 2013, list forms, views, editing mode, and customization of search results. The open-source extension is freely available, with its source code hosted on Github.
