So why do I need a new browser? I have Internet Explorer and I am happy with that! Well Internet Explorer might be all you need for browsing the net, but for web development, Firefox is a great tool, because you can download so many nice plug-ins that will make life a lot more easy. The best thing is that it’s all for free. So go get the following right now:
After you have installed Firefox, it’s time for a couple of free plug-ins. Go visit the add-on page:
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/extensions/
The two plug-ins you need to find are these:
- Web Developer - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/60/
- Colorzilla - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/271/
Web Developer will be the tool, where we can see all tags, divs, styles, images etc. Colorzilla is a small tool to pick and copy colours from anywhere on the screen.
After a hopefully successful install and a browser restart you should see these two new items in your browser:
![]()
Web Developer Tools
![]()
Colorzilla
