Add-on summary

This tool will add a layer on top of any website to be used as a guidance when developing interfaces.

Both vertical and horizontal baselines are now supported (V6.0+).

For better experience, you can change the colour of the lines as well as the opacity, making it easier to compare the grid with your website design.

The configuration you set for each URL is saved on localStorage, so you can go back later on and keep the grid as it was last time.

Developed by J. Pedro Ribeiro (@jpedroribeiro), and constantly updated with support of the open source community.
