Freeze DOM - Instant DOM Freezing Tool
"Freeze DOM" is a Chrome extension that allows users to instantly freeze the Document Object Model (DOM) of a webpage. By right-clicking on the tab content while the DevTools panel is open, users can preserve the visual state of a website, making it easier to inspect UI elements that require hover or focus to display. This functionality is particularly useful for taking snapshots of loading states or other dynamic UI components, enhancing your web development and debugging experience.
