Show HN: Mobile View – a Chrome extension showing desktop and mobile at once

Mobile View is a Chrome extension that lets developers see both desktop and mobile versions of a webpage simultaneously in a single window. The tool helps streamline responsive design testing without toggling between browser views.

Background

- The article is a "Show HN" post — a feature on Hacker News (HN), a tech-community site run by Y Combinator, where makers share side projects and get feedback. - The project is a Chrome extension that lets web developers see a desktop version and a mobile version of a page side by side in the same browser tab, instead of having to toggle responsive design mode or open separate windows. - It addresses a common pain point for front-end developers: testing responsive layouts. Most browsers' built-in developer tools only show one viewport at a time, and switching back and forth is slow. This extension aims to speed up that workflow.
