About Design Inspector
Design Inspector is the hover-to-inspect tool I always wanted but
could not find, so I built it.
Activate it, move your cursor over any element, and a tooltip appears
right next to your mouse showing the computed styles for whatever
you are hovering. Font family, size, weight, line height, letter
spacing, hex and RGB colour values, padding, margin, border radius,
box shadow, all pulled straight from the computed CSS, no DevTools
required.
Click any element to lock the tooltip in place. Once locked, every
row is clickable. Click a hex code to copy it, click a font name
to copy it, click a padding value to copy it. Press Esc to unlock
and go back to hovering, or press Esc again to kill the inspector
entirely.
Need a full audit? Hit Scan Page and it breaks everything down across
four panels:
- Fonts: computed typography per element type (h1, h2, p, a, button
etc) with a live preview rendered in the actual font
- Colours: full colour palette extracted from the page, sorted by
frequency, with hex and RGB values. Hover any swatch to highlight
every element using that colour directly on the page
- Images: every img element and CSS background image, with natural
and display dimensions
- Design tokens: padding, margin, border radius, box shadow, flex
properties and max-width across key layout elements
Export the full results as structured JSON or download a Markdown
