**Note:** This repo was originally a subdirectory of [drannex42/linux-utils](https://github.com/drannex42//linux-utils/), but has now become a standalone repo for my Firefox Sidebar CSS and Utilities. The original linux-utils files can be found [here](https://github.com/drannex42/utils).
Release notes have migrated to [here](https://github.com/drannex42/FirefoxSidebar/releases). You can find prior release notes before v12021.12.22 [here](https://github.com/drannex42/FirefoxSidebar/releases/tag/v12021.12.22).
To use FirefoxSidebar you will need to clone this repo into your firefox profile as the `chrome` folder and then follow the Sideberry section below. Both are outlined below in how to do so.
You could skip the clone step entirely if you manually add the FirefoxSidebar files to the "chrome" folder in your Firefox Profile (you will need to make a `chrome` folder if it doesn't exist!).
If you dislike any of the theme presets for dark or light themes, or you have a particular color scheme in mind then navigate to Sideberry Settings > Style Editor (found at the end of the settings sidebar). The preference is to replace the values in the right panel, not in the theme editor to the left - this way you can easily update to newer versions in the future.
Please backup the `prefs.css` and the `custom.css` files before updating to a new versionof FirefoxSidebar. There may be new additions to these files, so you will need to re-add your preferencess to the file accordingly. These files should be updated *far less* than the other files, but just to make sure please save them.
There are a number of preferences you can enable or disable in the `prefs.css` file. There are examples and descriptions of the different preferences within that file.
