Marking the 10th anniversary of Firefox browser, Mozilla has released a
new Developer Edition of Firefox, for web developers. The new edition
will benefit developers in boosting their productivity, across multiple
devices and platforms.
The
Firefox Developer Edition has a familiar UI and features. The biggest
change in this Developer Edition is its dark UI, which has been applied
to the entire browser. If any developer finds it uncomfortable, then
it’s allowed to go back to the familiar light theme through Customise
options. These options are available at the bottom of “hamburger” menu
and then developers need to click on “Use Firefox Developer Edition
Theme”.
The
key features of the first Developer Edition are WebIDE and Valence.
WebIDE is aimed at offering an integrated editor so that developers can
work with Firefox OS apps in simulators, Firefox OS devices and also
Firefox for Android devices. There is a debugger in the edition too
which allows you pause and inspect components. On the other hand,
Valence supports WebIDE and allows connecting with Chrome for Android,
Safari and iOS. It also lets inspect content on Chrome for Android, like
debuggable WebView content in KitKat OS and above. You can get the new
Firefox Developer Edition from the Mozilla website itself, and this
edition is based on Firefox 35.0a2.
