DEV-Tools: Firefox Add-on

DEV-Tools is a Firefox add-on that adds a new sidebar to the developer tools inspector panel. This sidebar allows users to view and inspect the properties of the current selected node in the markup view. It achieves this by using `sidebar.setExpression($0)` each time a new node is selected. The functionality is provided through a listener added via `browser.devtools.panels.elements.onSelectionChanged`.

Nice extension, unfortunately the description doesn't exactly describe what it does. It displays the DOM of the selected HTML element.
