 On the other hand, some interesting changes have been introduced into the development tools.

 For example, if you use the CSS Overview panel added as a preview, you can investigate and list the colors used on the page (including text and background). After you select the color listed, you can highlight where the color is used. You can check for accessibility issues or unused useless claims.

 In addition, the simulation function of automatic dark theme (Auto Dark Theme) is introduced. This function is tested by the Android version of "Chrome96" for Origin Trial. When the operating system is a dark theme, it automatically generates a dark theme for browsing pages and forces it to be applied. If you use the emulator, you can also view the mobile site after applying the auto-dark theme on the desktop, and if there is a failure, you can modify it.
