About
If you are like me, the first thing you do when you visit a GitHub page is to scroll down to the README. Truth is we rarely need to view the files, at least not directly, and most of the times they are just getting in our way. This extension hides the files block that jumps at your face: 1. The Folders and files section is now collapsed by default 2. You can now show the files by clicking on Show Folders and files or by using the ctrl+shift+F keyboard shortcut 3. Clicking or using the shortcut again will hide the files again
