Extension Usage Instructions
This is a Google Chrome extension that cleans up some of the cruft from the otherwise excellent Stack Exchange pages.
The idea for the extension came about as I started my first job as a web developer and, subsequently, came to spend more and more of my day scanning Stack Overflow, Server Fault, Ask Ubuntu, &c. I became increasingly distracted by the sidebar links, which may have had to do with all of the coffee I drink.
Rather than just popping open the browser console to individually hide the modules on especially jittery days, I decided to just write an extension to block them all of the time. Extension Basic Information
