Too bad that this is April Fools joke I was hoping to debug my dev tools extension, but CTRL+SHIFT+I just close the dev tools in Google Chrome.

Really?

It works. Only the arrow which we use to select elements doesn't

Aww, it's no joke, Jakub! Did you remember to first undock DevTools as described in step 2? The Ctrl+Shift+I shortcut will only open DevTools on an undocked instance. Hope that helps! ✨

Aw, that's pretty awesome I didn't read the article carefully. Now I can debug my dev tools extension. Thanks.
