Every coder understands the importance of debugging his/her code. Some of us are better at it than others. But you simply can’t ship bug-ridden code and expect your customers to be happy. There are many fun debugging codes, browser extensions, and scripts available on the market. These 6 debugging plugins can more than help you keep an eye on your code and its performance:
