Storage Area Viewer Extension
🚀Motivation:
Due to the transition to Manifest V3, extensions are increasingly moving from localStorage to the Chrome Storage Area. However, there is no easy way for developers to inspect the Storage Area directly in the development tools. Inspired by the Storage Area Explorer and enriched with features commonly needed in development, I created this extension, Storage Area Viewer, to fill that gap.
