Depending on its size, implementing a security feature usually involve important designing decisions which has to be worked on with several teams: platform, Gaia, UX, security. It is also the perfect way to know if other people are working on similar or related features. | ||

''' Learn how to use Bugzilla ''' | |||
You'll find plenty of useful resources on [https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Bugzilla MDN], especially about [https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Developer_guide/How_to_Submit_a_Patch how to submit a patch]. | |||
'''Ask for feedback early''' | |||
It is recommended you ask for feedback early, if possible as soon as you have a working prototype (you can use the "feedback" tag on Bugzilla). This will enable you to make sure everybody (UX, OS, security people) is aware and agrees on the direction you're taking with your implementation, and you'll possibly receive good advice for the remaining implementation work. | |||
