'''Firefox OS - Add-ons''' | |||
* Add-ons are coming to Firefox OS with v2.5 | |||
**FxOS Add-ons can be built and applied to one or several apps on the mobile device including the system app itself. They use the new extension API called WebExtensions [1] that we announced recently on the desktop browser. | |||
**So far, we were in the "foxfooding" phase. Now with v2.5, users can find Mozilla-reviewed add-ons on the Firefox Marketplace app from their devices. | |||
**For Contributors, there is a stipulated add-on review criteria on MDN [2]. | |||
**If you are interested in learning more about building add-ons on FxOS, please follow us here on MDN [3]. | |||
