I went back to Firefox for Quantum after a very long hiatus — mainly Chrome then Opera (Blink) — and TST was a main factor of my switching. Once it's customized to my liking, it's even better:

On a MBP, it looks like the sidebar rests on the side of the screen, embedded. Looks very neat, seamless

What settings did you use to get that dark theme on the extension?

Since the most recent version of TST, the author has added a barebones style, which can be customized at-will thanks to the custom styles textarea in the addon's settings. I've fired up the Browser Toolbox to get all the correct CSS selectors and then customized things to my liking. I've shared a gist on the addon's github issues with a version of my custom styles. I've since added a few things. I could create a new gist if you are interested

Found the original gist for those interested: https://gist.githubusercontent.com/jvzr/9015c395b2b49e101669...

Looks nice, quite similar to my setup. But you seems to also be using a number of customization that aren't possible with the extension alone - curious how you configured the auto-expand on mouseover?

Indeed! The auto-expand bit is largely done through userChrome.css (someone shared a solution that I've tweaked very lightly, props to the original sharer)

Maybe the implication wasn't clear, but could you share that customization? "Someone" isn't really helping me to track it down...

I found it in this issue: https://github.com/piroor/treestyletab/issues/1525
