DESCRIPTION
+The Chromium depot_tools suite contains many tools to assist/augment the +Chromium development environment. The tools may be downloaded from +here.
There are two primary categories of tools. Some of these tools are essential +to the development flow, in the sense that you cannot successfully develop +Chromium without them.
Other tools are merely helper tools. Not required, but they can substantially +ease the develpment workflow.
A listing of both categories of tools follows.
