About this extension
A fork of the original Downloads Sidebar which was abandoned in 2021 (by an unknown author).
The forked reborn extension does exactly the same as its original (displaying downloads, file name, download speed) with the only difference that now you can close the sidebar the same way you open it - by clicking on the extension icon in the toolbar. Here's a video demo:

The reborn extension opens a sidebar which displays your past and current downloads, meaning what you have downloaded and what is currently being downloaded. Completed downloads are retained between browser sessions, so you need to manually clear them.
v0.0.2 - dark theme, thanks to JamieH93: https://github.com/JamieH93
See the screenshots to see what the dark theme should look like.
