## Description

**Relative XPath Assistant** is a browser extension designed for developers and testers to quickly find relative XPath expressions for HTML elements on any webpage. Simply right-click on two elements to compare their relative XPaths or type an XPath expression and press Enter to explore web elements efficiently.

Based on the open-source project "relative-xpath-helper," this extension improves compatibility and ensures privacy by processing everything locally with no data sent to or received from external servers. It works on websites that support content scripts but does not operate on view-source pages. The extension is ideal for simplifying XPath generation and comparison directly in your browser.
