Pixxel is a lightweight Chrome extension for browser screenshots that offers simple styling features like rounded corners, shadows, and custom backgrounds. Created by developer Matt as a minimalist alternative to heavier screenshot tools, it was inspired by Screen Studio but focuses on simplicity and ease of use.
