[WARNING]

On Firefox, pages viewed directly from GitHub may not render properly. This is result of a https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1267027[Firefox bug] carrying over the Content Security Policies (CSP). The restrictive CSP sent by GitHub are applied to the content inserted by the WebExtension.

In addition, the extension does not automatically trigger in Firefox when navigating to a file:// from a link. Instead, you have to enter the file:// URL directly into the address bar of the browser. If you do navigate to a file:// URL from a link, simply highlight the address bar and press "Enter" to force the extension to load. There's an open issue in the https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1266960[Firefox bug tracker] to fix this limitation.
