Easy Copy DOM

Tired of digging through DevTools just to copy a piece of HTML? Easy Copy DOM is a Chrome extension that lets you grab the exact markup of any element with a single click. Just hover to highlight and click to copy—no inspect panel required.

Perfect for developers, designers, or anyone who needs to extract web components quickly. Stop digging — start copying!

Download it from the chrome web store.

Ever needed the exact HTML of a button, a card, or a whole section, and ended up opening DevTools and hunting through the tree to find it? Easy Copy DOM turns that into a single click: hover over anything on the page to highlight it, click, and its HTML is on your clipboard.

🖱️ How it works

Start the picker from the toolbar popup (“Copy now”) or with the keyboard shortcut. Move the mouse and every element under it lights up, with a small label showing its tag, its id and its pixel size. Click to copy that element’s full HTML to the clipboard, or press Esc to cancel. A toast confirms what you copied, including the tag and the number of characters.

⌨️ Keyboard Shortcut

  • Activate the picker: Alt + Shift + C (same on Mac)
  • Off by default — enable it in the popup, then set your own keys at chrome://extensions/shortcuts

✨ Key Features

  • One-click copy of any element’s full HTML (outerHTML).
  • Live highlight with the element’s tag, id and pixel size.
  • Clean overlay isolated in a Shadow DOM — it never touches or restyles the page.
  • Two ways in — toolbar button or keyboard shortcut.
  • Works on any normal web page.
  • Lightweight — the picker is injected only when you ask for it, nothing runs in the background.

⚙️ Customizable
Open the popup from the toolbar icon to adjust:

  • Enable or disable the keyboard shortcut (it remembers your choice across restarts).
  • Change the shortcut keys in Chrome settings.
