The CSS-ential Guide to New DevTools Features
summary
Six concrete Chrome DevTools techniques: use the Animations panel to replay and slow a starting-style color transition (orange → blue) so the hidden initial state becomes visible; invoke the AI assistant panel to edit the DOM and auto-apply vertical centering; inspect view-transitions and add live expressions to track a pseudo-element’s width during the route change; override CSS files to force invalid values and see Chrome’s validation, sync and copy CSS edits, and run the CSS Overview to list unused declarations, colors, fonts and media queries.
