Consider building a browser devtools extension #8

I stumbled upon your tool today and found it really useful. It's always frustrating to work with the different mime-types and the data in a dataTransfer object. Your tool is super helpful for this.

It would also be very useful inside DevTools. Would you consider building a DevTools extension for it?

In case this helps:

Create an extension that customizes the DevTools UI on learn.microsoft.com. Extending DevTools on developer.chrome.com. Extending the developer tools on MDN. Adding a web development tool to Safari Web Inspector on developer.apple.com.

Hi Patrick, thank you for the kind words!

A DevTools extension is a great idea, and on a first skimming of the docs it doesn't seem too complicated to get one going across platforms. Maybe it's worth dropping the React dependency while we're at it.

Not sure I have the bandwidth to tackle this for the time being, but it's something I look forward to.
