What is Wide GitHub?
"Wide GitHub" is a Firefox add-on that changes all GitHub repository and gist pages to be full width and dynamically sized. It allows you to read long lines of code without scrolling horizontally and see more documentation at once, especially on large/high-dpi monitors. It is also easily toggleable for viewing size-dependent docs or wiki pages.
