What are some useful tools for beginner web devs building MVPs?

I'm working on an MVP at the moment, using a template from WrapBootstrap, and I'm heavily customizing it for my purposes. It would be useful to have a tool that points out errors in my code, or visually displays where divs begin and end (since I'm often copying and pasting one section into another, I'm wary that I might be introducing some errors), or a tool that shows which sections of my CSS are superfluous. Are there any useful tools such as this? Or what other tools would you suggest for beginner web devs building MVPs?

    VS Code has lots of great tools built in, I switched from Sublime a few months ago and haven’t looked back. It has the same simplicity but with more robust extensions

    Webflow
    Firebase
    Airtable

      I stand behind Webflow, really great for design and developing

    +1 for VSCODE. lots of great plugins.

    Auto close tags
    Beautifiers
    indent rainbow
    rainbow brackets
    trailing spaces
    monokai high contrast theme
    csscomb is pretty nifty. hit Save and it'll format your css

    What code editor/IDE do you use?
    I believe you should search for some linters and static analysis tools. The are plenty of them for different editors and languages.
