Summary : Firefox Extensions and Themes

What is a firefox add-on?


Add-ons add new functionality to Gecko-based applications such as Firefox, SeaMonkey, and Thunderbird.

There are two main types of add-on:  

1. Extensions add new features to the application
2. Themes modify the application's user interface.[UI]

Mozilla operates a repository at addons.mozilla.org, also known as AMO

You don't have to submit add-ons to AMO, but if you do, users can take confidence in the fact that they have been reviewed, and you can benefit from AMO's visibility as a source for useful add-ons.

As a developer one needs to follow a set of guidelines to help ensure that they provide a good experience to users.

There are three different techniques you can use to build extensions:

1. Add-on SDK-based extensions, 
2. Manually bootstrapped restartless extensions
3. Overlay extensions.

Book Review: "Beginning Responsive Design with HTML and CSS3" by Jonathan Fielding

I had this thought of reading about responsive design.
I was able to quick read about 107 pages an ebook on Beginning Responsive Design with HTML and CSS3 and it was worth it.

The Author Jonathan Fielding has wonderfully compiled the necessary meal required for an aspiring Web Developer.

The book gives you an insight of how well the HTML and CSS have advanced to reduce features once web developers dreamed off considering the complexity of screensize across devices and browsers.

It covers subject knowledge behind Responsive Design across Web Browsers across devices. Some new takeways are the Viewports, additions in HTML5, power of CSS3, limitations of CSS implementation and existing solutions that overcome them.

The book also covers multiple columns, Gradient Panels, Device simulators for Blackberry, Android,FirefoxOS et.,.

The examples are neatly driven that allow a developer to practice as they move.
This has been the best learning curve in understanding the concepts in practice.


I do want to highlight about "Media Queries". It saved me a traditional approach that i had wanted to implement.
I suggest people glance through the book that clearly breaks down logically and architecturally what a thinking developer should understand to save time and effort.

I reached 100+ pages admiring the topic Layouts (Fixed, Fluid and Elastic) and its technical reference and application in designing. I feel really wonderful and its one of my fastest reads. I'd love to finish this book and complete my review.
