### 󠀁[Useful and functional](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/useful-and-functional-3/)󠁿

The Metadata Viewer plugin has been immensely helpful to me while developing and
troubleshooting some custom functionality for the WooCommerce store of a customer.
I thank my lazy self for deciding to look for such a tool before trying to cobble
up a worse looking and less functional alternative. However it is important to say
that the Metadata Viewer is not useful to developers only; end-users can find value
in easily viewing all meta-data associated with a post/page as well. Overall, it
is a really helpful tool that should have been natively available in the platform.
I will be adding this plugin to my toolkit for future projects. It easily earns 
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ for being good looking and functional. Plugin developer pluginizelab 
has my sincere gratitude for making this tool freely available to the community!
