The latest release of Firefox for Mac, Windows and Linux offers a number of new developer tools that are designed to make it easier to visualise web page elements.
The first of these tools is unique to Firefox. Dubbed the Page Inspector 3D View, but nicknamed 'Tilt', this WebGL-based visualisation tool tilts the web page and presents it as a stepped 3D structure. According to Mozilla, this innovation "highlights the structure of a page better than a flat view, so anyone can immediately understand the relationship of the code to the page output". Mozilla added that although 'view source' commands have always been useful to help people learn about how to develop web pages, the 3D View "more clearly illustrates how the parts of a website are structured".
