HTTP Version Indicator

An indicator showing the HTTP version used to load the page in the address bar.

The HTTP Version Indicator is a simple yet powerful Chrome extension that displays which HTTP protocol version is used to load the current web page. It adds a clear, unobtrusive indicator directly in the address bar, giving users quick insight into whether the page was fetched using HTTP/1.1, HTTP/2, or HTTP/3.

This tool is especially helpful for developers, network engineers, or anyone interested in the technical details of web page delivery. It ensures immediate visibility without opening developer tools or checking network headers manually.
