## 1. Daily.dev

Daily.dev really became my go-to extension! They provide a default opening tab that shows you the most awesome dev news.
And keep an eye out. You might find one of my articles there.

I'm sure you ever wondered what stack a website was using?
This extension will tell you super quickly what's going on.
It even tells you certain versions.

Coil is a fantastic extension when it comes to getting paid for viewing content. If you ever found yourself reading awesome content, think about getting a Coil subscription.

## 4. Grammarly for Chrome

Although this is more of a "writers" extension, I think everyone can benefit from using Grammarly. The extension works great on all kinds of websites.
