Furigana Toggle - Chrome Extension for Controlling Furigana Visibility

Furigana Toggle is a Google Chrome extension designed to assist learners of Japanese language. It facilitates learning by allowing users to toggle the visibility of furigana on and off as they browse the web. The extension provides two modes, one that hides all furigana, and another that reveals hidden furigana on hover. It's worth noting that Furigana Toggle cannot add furigana to websites which do not already feature it, it only serves to mask or unmask furigana as needed.
