''Spark'' is a set of tools, customizations, and features built on top of the next generation of the ''Firefox OS'' platform and is a subset of the ''Ignite'' initiative. ''Spark'' is intended to empower users to customize their experience, hack whatever they want to, and make their devices truly theirs. It can be seen as analogous to desktop's ''Firefox Developer Edition'' browser, except that it has many more new features and apps, and isn’t just a reskin. The intention is that we will leverage web technologies for real-time hacking, as other platforms rely on native binaries that are difficult to edit once compiled. Sharing web apps and hacks is also easier as they are more portable and standards-driven.

We plan to iterate rapidly on the Spark feature set. The first release is just a set of basic building blocks and a framework that we can then build upon.
