#What is Supertweak?

Supertweak is a Chrome extension designed to simplify the process of designing and debugging Tailwind CSS websites directly in the browser. Its primary goal is to allow developers to visually tweak Tailwind classes, layouts, and content without the constant back-and-forth between code editors and devtools.

Aimed at developers, designers, and startups, Supertweak enables rapid prototyping by letting you modify any website (not just your own), preview changes instantly, and copy the resulting classes or HTML back to your project. With features like responsive previews and element editing, it’s a handy tool for anyone looking to iterate on designs quickly and efficiently.

#Features

• Tailwind Editor: Add, edit, or remove Tailwind classes in the browser, supporting arbitrary values, variants, and negative properties.

• Responsive Switcher: Resize the browser window to device widths for accurate responsive design testing, unlike traditional devtools.

• Children Editor: Rearrange, duplicate, or remove elements, and add new elements or text nodes with ease.

• Quick Capture: Take screenshots of the visible screen or selected areas to share changes with your team.

• Edit Mode: Focus on editing text content on the page without distractions, streamlining content updates.

• Custom Config Support: Load your Tailwind config in Play CDN format to apply custom themes and settings.

• Autocompletion: Suggests Tailwind classes as you type, speeding up the editing process.
