I’m doing lots of Airtable projects these days…

When I use longer folder names, it becomes impossible to read without hovering and adjusting the column size in Airtable.

So I wrote a little Chrome Extension moves the groups up to the line above. It automatically applies to any Airtable base that uses `/` in the field name.
