## Description

Toggle Website Colors (Tab) is a handy Chrome extension designed to improve readability by allowing users to toggle website colors set by the site author. It integrates a checkbox in the page context menu and a button in the address bar, giving you quick control to disable color schemes that might be hard to read, such as orange text on yellow backgrounds, reverting to easy-to-read black on white text.

Key features include the ability to toggle colors on a per-tab basis, automatic disabling of website colors for new tabs (optional), and customizable color settings. This extension enhances the browsing experience by letting you tailor website color displays to your comfort without affecting other tabs.
