Chrome Extensions Every Developer should be Using

Back in the days when I began learning to code I happened to have noticed a lot of staff from the tutorials I used to follow:

• most sites were in dark mode,
• they easily got the website's colors
• page colors Am pretty sure you have encountered similar events and perhaps wondered how they easily get these corresponding recourses they need?

Out of this curiosity, I had to dig out what extensions they are using, and along the process, I found pretty cool and amazing extensions and I will share them with you.
