Should we really hide this bar? |

A few reasons: 1: it's not that useful. You have to login with netlify, granted you can make a netlify with a github but still it funnels users into making an account. And after that the functionality you get is the same as commenting on github (which gets reposted by the netlify bot). The only useful tool really is the screen recorder which I found a little weird because it recorded the entire window (tabs and all). 2: it's ugly. I don't think it's themeable, and worst of all it covers content. It's set to position absolute so it floats over content and doesn't add scroll height. So I think right now the netlify bar covers the Fazeoid & copyright text at the bottom. 3: right now it's a bit broken on mobile. This will be fixed with #66, but after that the bar will be even bigger and cover more. 4: Removing it makes the app look the same as production, which looks nicer IMO. I suppose it has a downside that someone could mistake it for production, but they would just have to look at the URL to know. |

OK |
Hide the bar that appears at the bottom of the netlify previews.
Its features may be slightly useful but I think it's ugly and just gets in the way of normal users.
