## Description

Toggle Native Tab Bar is a Firefox extension that empowers users to show or hide the browser's native tab bar on demand. While sidebar tab managers like Tree Style Tab or Sidebery help manage tabs in a sidebar, this addon focuses on toggling the visibility of the native tab bar for flexibility when needed.

With a lightweight setup involving minimal CSS, users can seamlessly switch between seeing their sidebar tabs and the native tab bar without sacrificing convenience or appearance. Detailed installation instructions are available on the [GitHub repository](https://github.com/irvinm/Toggle-Native-Tab-Bar). This extension is perfect for users seeking more control over their tab management experience.
