About

Welcome to hacks.mozilla.org!

This site is here to highlight leading edge stuff that people are doing with Mozilla Firefox and the open web.  The web is accelerating with the rise of modern browsers and Firefox is leading the pack — both in terms of adoption by end users and the technology itself.  Adoption of technology landing in browsers usually takes a couple of years as ideas and interfaces spread from browser to browser and then is picked up by developers.  Exploring what’s possible helps drive adoption and interest both on the parts of developers and browser builders.  This site is here to help show what’s possible at the edges of web technology.

If you’re a web developer, this stuff should be pretty interesting to you.  If you’re an end user, you’re going to find some of the posts pretty obtuse, but you might find the demos really interesting.

If you have feedback about the site, please let us know.  We’re always looking for good feedback.

Enjoy!
