You want to request a new API for WebExtensions? | |||
Great. But please read through the following before filing a bug: | |||
* The goal of WebExtensions is not to support every API and use case from legacy extensions. | |||
* For a list of what we are aiming for, please check out [[/WebExtensions/Vision|the vision document]] | |||
* If you are expecting a bug before Firefox 57, please check out the [[/WebExtensions/RoadmapToFirefox57|roadmap document]]. | |||
* Generic or very broad bugs are hard to turn into actionable issues, please try to limit the focus if possible. | |||
* Try and do [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/query.cgi?query_format=advanced&short_desc_type=allwordssubstr&short_desc=&product=Toolkit&component=WebExtensions:%20Android&component=WebExtensions:%20Compatibility&component=WebExtensions:%20Developer%20Tools&component=WebExtensions:%20Experiments&component=WebExtensions:%20Frontend&component=WebExtensions:%20General&component=WebExtensions:%20Request%20Handling&component=WebExtensions:%20Untriaged&longdesc_type=allwordssubstr&longdesc=&bug_file_loc_type=allwordssubstr&bug_file_loc=&status_whiteboard_type=allwordssubstr&status_whiteboard=&keywords_type=allwords&keywords=&bug_id=&bug_id_type=anyexact&votes=&votes_type=greaterthaneq&emailtype1=substring&email1=&emailtype2=substring&email2=&emailtype3=substring&email3=&chfieldvalue=&chfieldfrom=&chfieldto=Now&j_top=AND&f1=noop&o1=noop&v1= a search] to see if the bug exists already before filing if possible. | |||
We do try to review all incoming API requests, but it takes time, please be patient. | |||
If the API is controversial, or falls outside of the project goals then it will probably be triaged in a [[/Add-ons/Contribute/Triage|design decision needed meeting]]. | |||
