Foldable View for GitHub is a browser extension that replaces the code view on github.com with a foldable editor, so that source files can be collapsed by indentation depth.
This extension does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data, browsing history, or usage information. No analytics or tracking of any kind is included.
The extension only requests access to https://github.com/*.
This is required to read the source code that GitHub has already placed in
the page and to render the foldable view in its place. No other
permissions are requested.
On pull request "Files changed" pages the extension requests the full file from github.com (the same origin as the page you are already viewing), because a diff only contains fragments and cannot be folded by indentation. No request is ever sent to any server operated by the developer or to any third party.
Whether the foldable view opens automatically is remembered in your
browser's localStorage for github.com. This value never
leaves your device and can be cleared through the browser's normal site
data controls.
This extension does not communicate with any external servers or third-party services, and it does not load or execute any remotely hosted code. All functionality runs locally in your browser.
