Pause Script Execution

SUMMARY

Have you ever needed to debug a webpage, but the elements are moving too quickly or a popup menu disappears when you stop hovering over it? This extension allows you to easily pause JavaScript execution using a hotkey. Under the hood, it just calls "debugger" to freeze execution, allowing you to inspect everything that's going on. To use, just open Chrome DevTools and then press the hotkey (default Ctrl+Shift+S) to pause script execution. You can reload the page and press this hotkey quickly to time exactly when the execution pauses. Change the hotkey to anything you want by going to Extensions -> Keyboard shortcuts (on the left) -> Pause Script Execution This extension is very simple and lightweight. See the source code here: https://github.com/andyjsmith/Pause-Script-Execution

The latest version of Pause Script Execution is available on the Chrome web and is currently being used by 55 active users. The initial version was launched on 2024-05-30.
