WhatsApp in Sidebar

A Firefox WebExtension to display WhatsApp within the Firefox sidebar. This extension adds a new section to the sidebar which contains the WhatsApp web app. It also adds a shortcut, and a button toggle within the toolbar.

How to use

  1. Toggle the sidebar by pressing Alt+Shift+7. This shortcut can be changed by going to Add-ons -> WhatsApp in Sidebar -> Options.
  2. If you prefer buttons over shortcuts, there is a toolbar button you can press to toggle the sidebar.
How to Unlock Firefox Sidebar Width
The sidebar's width is locked by default in Firefox. Unfortunately, the sidebar is very restrictive and I can only do so much to enhance the functionality of this extension. I put together a step-by-step guide on how to unlock it over at my website.

Disclaimer
This Add-on is primarily for personal use; a personal project if you will. I'm just trying to use WhatsApp on the Firefox sidebar. This add-on just launches their webapp in the sidebar. This extension is an independent project, has no relationship, and is not affiliated to WhatsApp in any way.
