I am having trouble finding any documentation about what can be embedded/displayed in a sidebar app. I have built simple github hosted sites but find that the front sidebar is not responsive, so I have to actually hardcode the screen dimensions. 

 

Are there any documents or parameters people have found for these custom sidebar plugins?

Hi @lindsay_rawitscher ,

The plugin pane max width is ~530 pixels, so the experience is similar to developing websites to be responsive on mobile devices. 

The plugin pane is just an iframe, so it will display content in exactly the same way as a browser window reduced to that size. There’s no additional documentation or parameters on top of that I’m afraid!
