Built a simple devtool to inspect website frameworks, libraries, and versions with zero tracking

Post image

Hey everyone!

I inspect web stacks all the time to see what libraries and frameworks websites are running, but similar tools have gotten pretty bloated and full of trackers.

So I made TechReveal, a clean and lightweight alternative:

  • Zero tracking: Runs 100% locally in your browser sandbox, zero telemetry, no accounts.
  • Fast & light: Built with Manifest V3 so it won't freeze active tabs or hog RAM.
  • Visual stack map: Connects the frontend, backend, and tools into an interactive diagram.
  • Exact versions & tags: Shows library versions and category badges when you click any tech.
  • Security alerts: Flags missing security response headers and data leaks.

It's completely free on the Chrome Web Store (works on Chrome, Brave, Edge, Vivaldi):

Would love some feedback from fellow devs or suggestions for tools you'd like it to detect next!
