3. Go to your Firefox profile:
   • If you're on Linux: $HOME/.mozilla/firefox/XXXXXXX.default-release/
   • If you're on Windows: C:\Users\<USERNAME>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\XXXXXXX.default-XXXXXX

This userstyle was made for a keyboard centered usage, like Tilling Window Manager users or just cool people that loves them! Use the following for a better experience:

• Alt You can access to the global menu for an extended options you need
• Alt + Left Arrow You can go Back
• Alt + Right Arrow You can go Forward
• Ctrl + L focuses the Navbar
• Ctrl + B shows you the Bookmarks
• Ctrl + H shows you the History Bar
• Ctrl + T Opens a new Tab
• Ctrl + W Closes a Tab
• Ctrl + Shift + T Re-opens a tab that you just closed
• Ctrl + R Refresh the page you're on
• Ctrl + Shift + A Quick open for Add-Ons

All the configuration will be managed in the userChrome.css file. And also all the code is commented so you can easily change values and colors as you like.

In this section of the code you can change the colors, there's a window color and a tabs / urlbar color.

:root {
  --sfwindow: #19171a;
  --sfsecondary: #201e21;
}

You can show and hide the URL Bar (See the difference above) by commenting / uncomment the following section of code:

/*─────────────────────────────*/
/* Comment this section if you */
/* want to show the URL Bar    */
/*─────────────────────────────*/

.urlbarView {
  display: none !important;
}

/*─────────────────────────────*/

• Right click on toolbar -> Customize.
  • Remove (as you want) all the removable elements including extensions, drag space and buttons.
• Install the SimpleFox add on theme.

If anyone has the doubt, in almost all of the screenshots you can see a Startpage made for it. It's called Bento 🍱 and It's another project I made. It fits with the Firefox theme because It's done with the same principles: Minimalist, Simple and Elegant.

Andreas Grafen has made an awesome work making a One Line theme inspired by SimpleFox. As it's work is awesome and allows you customization I can totally recomend it. Here you can find his repo: Link

• As Firefox changed at version 88 introducing the Proton UI, all the old files and configurations moved to oldFirefox branch.
• Windows and MacOS are currently tested but may not be in the future.
• Some custom themes (And GTK themes in Linux) may break context menus.
