Thank you for this awesome extension! Great job. But one thing that is quite annoying and distracting is seeing the toolbar every time you load the page. The toolbar should be hidden when the page loads and only display if the user chooses to toggle it on.

I would use it over Seven JSON Viewer, but it is currently broken (I am using Brave on Linux) Quick fix for me was to add `.line { line-height: 18px; }`. And font-family should be customizable (text input), so I can see my custom local font instead of the generic one. These 2 changes would make it 5/5 for me.
