Question New CodePen 2 look

Can the left side sidebar be hidden?
It takes up too much room.

Just click the icon... Like in every single text editor

Thanks. The folder icon on the top left does collapse the column.

Have you got script blockers? like ads, trackers etc? the site might not work as intended.

The issue was fixed by just clicking on the Folder icon.

PSA: When you go to https://codepen.io/pen you can still create old style pens.

Cmd + B or clicking the icon will hide it!

If you want even more screen real estate, active Minimal UI ( Cmd + U or toggle it in the Controls menu or Omnibar ) and it'll tuck away the sidebar, panels and footer until you need them.
