I would recomment to develop extensions for Firefox Developer Tools
(Firebug doesn't support e10s and will stop working as soon as it's on)

There is already bunch of examples here:
https://github.com/firebug/devtools-extension-examples

And there are also full featured extensions:
https://github.com/firebug/rdp-inspector
https://github.com/firebug/pixel-perfect
https://github.com/firebug/har-export-trigger
https://github.com/firebug/firequery

You can also use MDN
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Tools/DevToolsAPI

If you are missing an example showing specific features,
let me know I can try to implement it.

Hello Honza,

I have a requirement where i have to extend and create custom defined inspector, will be creating a icon in the newly created panel.

when user clicks on the icon, it should act like inspector and once user selects an object it should returns the id or name or the unique property of the object.

Sorry to ask more, but the addon which we are planning to develop revolves around  objects and its property.

Please do guide me
