What is Firebug?

Firebug was a popular web browser extension for Mozilla Firefox that facilitated debugging, editing, and monitoring of any website's CSS, HTML, JavaScript, and network activity. It allowed developers to inspect and modify the DOM, track network requests, and profile JavaScript code, significantly aiding in web development and troubleshooting. Although Firebug is no longer actively developed and its features have been integrated into Firefox's built-in developer tools, it remains a historically significant tool in the evolution of web development.
