Helio Alves (ID: 000000a51c913b50) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 03/28/2016 Seriously!!! This is definitely one of the best if not the best responsive inspector tool. If you are in Front-End Development then this extension must be part of your toolbelt. :)

Justin Gordon (ID: 000000c943170ad3) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 03/19/2016 Glad I found this extension after trying the (broken) original. This extension is a must when learning about responsive sites. Thank you for your work on this extension/project!

Scott Godin (ID: 0000008906dcee40) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 03/15/2016 Nice job fixing the bugs of the original -- too bad the chrome webstore won't let you take over the original module -- I only found you accidentally: the store offered the original module as a 'related' to some other things I was looking at, and I only inadvertently found _you_ when I went to file a bug report on the original. Glad I did; this thing is _slick_.
