What sets a browser apart from other is I think its extensions and performance. Firefox and Google Chrome are the best examples. Both of them have a highly active community for building extensions and you have over thousands extensions to choose from.
Yes, extensions give additional features and functionalities to a browser, but the question is how to build an extension.
If you’re really interested, here I am presenting an e-book (currently available for free) titled ‘Build Your Own Firefox Extension’ that makes you to build a custom extension for Firefox.
Anyone with a minimal understanding of JavaScript and XML can build a Firefox extension. With this e-book, you can:
- learn about the folder structure and file types that comprise an extension
- develop your user interface using XUL, and style it with CSS
- build functionality and advanced features with JavaScript
- add keyboard shortcuts and internationalization features
- learn how to publish the finished product
The publisher Sitepoint giving away this e-book (normally worth $9.95) as a gift to celebrate the release of their new FREE extension called CodeBurner for Firefox.
