## Description

Pocket in Sidebar is a Chrome extension that lets you view your Pocket reading list inside a convenient browser sidebar. By opening your Pocket list at [getpocket.com](https://getpocket.com/a/) directly in the sidebar, it allows quick access to all your saved articles without switching tabs or windows.

Key features include inline article viewing in reader mode within the sidebar, with the option to open articles in new tabs via secondary clicks. Please note there is no offline support, and it doesn't integrate with Firefox's Pocket functionality. The extension uses a clean Pocket icon for easy identification. This tool streamlines browsing and reading your Pocket list efficiently.
