Victor Varela (ID: 0000003487a44f10) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 10/27/2023 For those who use graphql, this tool will change the way you analyze the request in the browser. It gives you a broad view of the request (querie, mutation..), the variables sent and responses, all organized in a JSON structure. Congratulations to those involved in this project. I use popOS! and Chrome for development, and it's working perfectly.

Prabodh Kelkar (ID: 00000014817f2146) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 09/25/2023 The extension is helpful when it works, but lately after every mac os upgrade or chrome upgrade this extension disappears from chrome dev tools and does not show up even after removing extension and adding it back. This sucks!!!
