Introducing the AngularJS Batarang

For the past month, we've been working on a Chrome extension to help debug AngularJS applications. Today, we're introducing the AngularJS Batarang (a superheroic tool that lives up to its name). This extension features tools to help find and address performance bottlenecks, and visualize and debug applications.

We are releasing this early version because we'd love to get your feedback. Let us know what you think and what we should add or improve in the AngularJS Google Group.

Also be aware that this extension is built on experimental Chrome APIs, which means that you'll need Chrome Canary to use it. Additionally we can't upload it to the Chrome Web Store until the experimental APIs are available in the Chrome stable. Yes, we are living on the bleeding edge of Chrome extension development, but that's only because we want to provide you with features that can't be implemented in current stable Chrome version. It's just a matter of time until the needed APIs are stable, and installing the extension will be much easier.

Check out how to get the extension, then watch the tutorial below to get started.
