Am I Home: A Convenient Chrome Extension for Local Development
Am I Home is a free Chrome extension developed by Ryan Behague. This handy tool is designed to make it easier for developers to determine whether they are working locally or on the web. With Am I Home, you no longer need to navigate to the network tab to check your status.
The extension adds a small icon to the address bar, which provides a quick visual cue. When you are working locally, the icon will display a red laptop, indicating that you are in your local environment. On the other hand, when you are "away" and working on the web, the icon will change to a black palm tree.
In addition to the visual indicator, Am I Home also displays the current IP address of the web requests in the bottom left corner of the site. This feature allows you to easily keep track of the IP address associated with your web activities.
Am I Home is a simple yet effective tool for developers who frequently switch between local and web environments. With its intuitive interface and convenient features, this Chrome extension is a valuable addition to any developer's toolkit.
