Common use cases

  • Use HTTP status and headers when documenting APIs or debugging responses without leaving the browser.
  • Open CIDR when you need network, broadcast, or host range math for IPv4 or IPv6 prefixes.
  • Use MIME types or IANA ports when mapping extensions, Content-Type values, or service names.
  • Try Open Graph or robots/sitemap preview when checking marketing HTML or crawler rules.

Common mistakes to avoid
