CSS debugging tool with an unpronounceable name

https://codepen.io/lucagez/full/LMEerQ

If you are using a bundler:

npm install debucsser

Alternatively download debucsser.js in /module folder and link it in your html

Debucsser is a simple CSS debugging tool made to be unobtrusive in your workflow.

I find myself often apply "outline" to a lot of elements on the page to see their dimensions.

With Debucsser I simply have to hold CTRL and move my mouse around to see the dimensions in px and apply an outline class to every element I hover.

If you hold CTRL + SHIFT you apply the outline class to all the elements on the page by adding a global class.

You can configure some parameters.

I find handy the possibility to specify a custom class I want to apply to different elements without the need to comment and uncomment the my css files.

// only if you installed via NPM
import Debucsser from 'debucsser';

// pass all the custom properties you want
const config = {
        color: 'palevioletred', // color of the outline
        width: '4px', // width of the outline
        grayscaleOnDebugAll: true, // apply grayscale filter to every element 
        customClass: 'exampleClass',  // a class existent in your stylesheet
      }

// init the debugger
const debug = new Debucsser(config).init();

When you have done this, simply hold CTRL and move the mouse around on the page or hold CTRL + SHIFT.
