## What it is
Chii is a remote debugging tool for web pages, similar to weinre, that replaces the web inspector with the latest Chrome DevTools frontend. It runs a Node.js server and injects a target script into webpages so they can be inspected from another device or browser.

## Use cases
- debug a mobile web page from my desktop devtools
- inspect a webpage on a phone remotely
- remote debugging tool like weinre
- embed chrome devtools in an iframe on the same page
- debug pages on devices without devtools

## When to choose
- you need to debug web pages on mobile or embedded browsers lacking devtools
- you want a modern Chrome DevTools frontend for remote inspection
- you want a maintained weinre alternative

## When to avoid
- you only debug desktop browsers where built-in devtools suffice
- you need to debug native mobile apps rather than web pages

## Facets
- artifact type: cli-tool
