== Huh What Is This!? == | |||
In short: we are turning Firefox Home into a web application. | |||
Home will become a Web App. In case of iOS it will be likely be shipped inside a small native wrapper for the iPhone and iPad but its core will be a portable Mobile Web App. | |||
So this means that we have to build something server side. To put it simple, we are basically building a web site that acts as a sync client. | |||
For recent devices (Android, iOS, PlayBook) we will expose a modern HTML5 web site that is mostly build on top of JSON web services that we expose. For older devices, or less capable devices, we plan to serve simple static HTML4. | |||
=== Simple plan for Firefox Home 2.0 === | |||
Home becomes Web App with native iPhone and iPad wrapper | |||
* Focus on iOS: iPhone and iPad | |||
* Integration with Mozilla’s new identity service for secure and easy single-signon with your iPhone or iPad | |||
* Same functionality as (native app) 1.0: access history, bookmarks?, tabs, awesomebar-style searching | |||
* New visual design | |||
