Low-Key ToolBar

Description

Low-Key ToolBar makes the block editor toolbar less noticeable and improve block editor UX.

I think block editor toolbar is useful, but too big and too conspicuous and disturbing.
Sure, top toolbar mode is not disturbing, but is not user-friendly.

This plugin add its own setting sidebar to block editor and You can control scale, opacity, vertical position of the block editor toolbar.

By adjusting these properteis, the toolbar will be less noticeable, and it will improve UX.

Great little plugin and highly useful for working in the Block Editor where that darn Toolbar keeps getting in the way! Saves having to dock it to the top of the window and allows quicker editing! Thank you!
