Opera hat die erste Alpha der Debug-Werkstatt Dragonfly herausgebracht. Obwohl der Browser Opera noch immer ein closed-source Projekt ist, wird Dragonfly unter der BSD-Lizenz veröffentlicht.

Opera pitches Dragonfly as a tool for debugging web pages and web applications. Its feature set includes a JavaScript error console and command line, a debugger, and CSS and DOM inspectors. The current release (out today, and requiring Opera 9.5 beta 2) is an alpha, but they’ve announced planned improvements for the future. Notably, write access to CSS and DOM properties is still to come, as well as support for non-desktop versions of Opera.

Noch reicht die Funktionalität nicht an die von Firebug, aber das soll noch kommen..

The initial alpha release is just the beginning. Opera Dragonfly has a fully featured road map, including support for editing of CSS, JavaScript and the DOM, a single window mode, improved JavaScript thread handling, XHR and HTTP monitoring, improved keyboard navigation, and translation into a number of languages.
