One of the reasons that I like Firefox is the amount of high quality add-ons that are available. They make my life so much easier and they also increase my productivity. However, there are so many add-ons out there that it might be difficult to pick out which ones are good. So, I’ve compiled a list of add-ons that I use and recommend for web design. If you are a web designer, you should already be familiar with these, but I still wanted to share this list for those who are interested in or have just started getting into web design.

1. Firebug

Firebug integrates with Firefox to put a wealth of development tools at your fingertips while you browse. You can edit, debug, and monitor CSS, HTML, and JavaScript live in any web page.

2. YSlow

YSlow analyzes web pages and why they’re slow based on Yahoo!’s rules for high performance web sites.

3. Page Speed

Page Speed is an open-source Firefox/Firebug Add-on. Webmasters and web developers can use Page Speed to evaluate the performance of their web pages and to get suggestions on how to improve them.

4. Web Developer

As you know, social media icons can be seen everywhere. Most of the time, they are either linking to social media profiles or facilitating content sharing. Since there are so many social media icon sets available now, I’ve compiled my favorite ones in this list. I hope you enjoy and use them in your next projects.
