Squint is a free Chrome add-on developed by pixelbandito that serves as a utility for web designers and developers. It allows users to blur and desaturate their webpages, providing a unique perspective on the design of their works in progress.

With Squint, designers can easily review their projects in a browser by blurring and removing colors from the current active tab. This simple yet effective feature helps users evaluate the overall composition of their designs without being distracted by the content. By squinting at their work, designers can quickly assess the visual hierarchy and foundational design principles used in their projects.

Squint is a straightforward tool that focuses solely on its purpose, without any personal information, ads, micropayments, or subscriptions. It aims to help designers maintain simplicity and prevent the loss of design quality as they add incremental details to their marketing pages or web applications.

As a Chrome add-on, Squint provides a convenient solution for web designers and developers to gain a fresh perspective on their works in progress. Whether you're a professional designer or a student, Squint can be a valuable addition to your toolkit.
