🦊 Firefox Monoline

Minimize your Firefox toolbar to one single line.

🛑 No longer maintained 🛑

I am no longer maintaining this repository, for three reasons.

  • I am happily using the gorgeous Firefox GNOME theme, and I am sticking with it, for the moment.
  • Unfortunately, as I am not using this theme myself I do not have enough time to properly tinker with this, and I would prefer to prioritize other projects.
  • I found Firefox Onebar to be a much more advanced and up-to-date choice, hence I would prefer to adopt and potentially contribute to that project if I ever switched back to single-line Firefox layout.

Features

  • 🧹 Remove clutter and make Firefox toolbar as essential as possible 🚀
  • 🚗 Compact mode support
  • ⚠️ Preserve icons and functionalities for which no ⌨️ keyboard shortcut exists
  • ✅ Non-breaking implementation
  • 💡 Do you have a suggestion? Share it here)!

🧑🏻‍💻 Usage

  • visit about:config
    • set toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets: true
    • extensions.pocket.enabled: false
  • Go to Menu > More Tools > Customize Toolbar:
    • auto-hide downloads button
    • remove all flexible space
    • remove all icons
  • Open about:support, copy the path of the Profile Folder
  • open the terminal
  • run cd /path/to/profile
  • run git clone https://codeberg.org/tommi/firefox-monoline.git chrome

🚗 Compact mode

The built-in Firefox “Compact mode” vertically compresses the navigation bar by slightly reducing its height. To activate it:

  1. visit the about:config page;
  2. search for browser.compactmode.show and change it to true;
  3. go to Menu > More Tools > Customize Toolbar, set density as “compact”.

In order to use Compact mode with Firefox Monoline it is necessary to change some parts of userChrome.css:

  • remove the first 9 lines (delete urlbar-container and urlbar styling)
  • in line 34, change the value to -36px !important
