## Description

Hack Font Everywhere swaps the default monospace font on every web page for Hack, a typeface crafted specifically for source code and terminal text.

What it does:
- Overrides the font on common code elements: <pre>, <code>, <kbd>, <samp>, <tt>, <var>, and <textarea>
- Catches code blocks and inline snippets on sites like GitHub, GitLab, Stack Overflow, MDN, Reddit, blogs, and documentation
- One-click toggle from the toolbar popup — turn it off per session if a site needs its original font

What it doesn't do:
- No data collection, no analytics, no network requests beyond loading the bundled font files
- No account, no cloud sync — just a single on/off setting stored locally
- Won't touch sans-serif body text, only elements that ask for monospace

About Hack: Hack is an open-source typeface (MIT/Bitstream Vera license) designed for source code legibility, with distinguishable characters at small sizes (zero vs. O, 1 vs. l vs. I, etc.). The font files are bundled with the extension — nothing is downloaded at runtime.
