What styling do you use? UI looks different, it's easier to see borders, it would be useful during development.

It's modded by myself and i'm planning to release it somewhen after Space Age release to avoid incompatibility issues.
I'm not a huge fan of the vanilla 3D-, Shadow-, Glow-things and wanted something flat (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flat_design).
I've attached it but it's not final.

There are also some debug shortcuts, which might be useful for you (especially removing shadows):
CTRL+F7 -> Remove Shadow
CTRL+F8 -> Remove Glow
And you probably already also know about CTRL+F5 and CTRL+F6.

Almost ready. I'm going to experiment with dynamic resizing to check if it's more convenient then buttons but all basic functionalities are working.

Dynamic resizing and aligning columns for whole toolbar, more convenient and no ugly buttons anymore. Now I need to work on performance, especially on updating current item count. It's strange that lua is so slow. I wonder if Factorio is not making some operations more expensive, not many things happen there after all.

Big performance improvement, not perfect but decent time of items counting.

Great performance improvement. Even with hundreds slots it takes roughly 1ms to sync count in toolbar with inventory.
Added scrollbar when toolbar is higher than screen.
Added crafting: (further improvement awaiting, I want those bindings to be configurable and also add binding for crafting a stack)
ctrl + left = 1
alt + left = 5
shift + left = all
When locked and there is no section with name longer than 3 letters minimum number of columns is 1 instead of 2 as previously was, if it's longer than 3 then minimum number of columns is 2.
