    I am a developer and some the extensions that are a must-have for any developer include:

    1. Web developer (Developer tools extension)

    2. Requestly (Extension to Intercept & Modify HTTP Requests) - requestly.io

    3. Colorzilla (Color Picker extension) - colorzilla.com

    4. Web developer checklist (Extension to analyze any web page for violations of best practices)

    5. Clear cache (Development tool extension to clear cache automatically)

    6. Wappalyzer (Identify underlying technologies behind web pages) -wappalyzer.com

    7. WhatFont (Font recognizer extension)

    8. JSON Formatter (Extension to beautify unformatted JSON)

    9. Edit This Cookie (Cookie manager extension)

    10. Check My Links (Link checker extension)

    I like Web Developer, Requestly and Wappalyzer the most.
    I have personally been using all of them for a long period of time. These are diverse extensions that are useful for every type of developer as well as some of them are specialized ones fit for narrower niches.

      Adding to the list -

      • JSON Formatter to pretty-print JSON api response
      • ColorZilla to pick color codes from web pages.
      • Jquery Inject - to quickly insert jquery in page and manipulate dom.

          I personally liked Requestly and Clear Cache the most. Will recommend the same to everyone.

          Requestly: requestly.io

          Clear cache: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/clear-cache/cppjkneekbjaeellbfkmgnhonkkjfpdn
