Jetpack's architecture under versions 0.8 and earlier (now called the Jetpack "prototype") is being abandoned for a new architecture nicknamed the Jetpack "reboot". Check the [[Labs/Jetpack/Reboot|Labs reboot wiki page]] for details, but briefly, the differences between the two: | |||
* The reboot has a security model, the prototype didn't. | |||
* Extensions produced under the reboot are actually XPIs. Under the prototype they were single JS files. | |||
* The reboot is very loosely integrated with Firefox. The Jetpack runtime is bundled in each XPI. The only significant hook that these XPIs require is a no-restart-needed mechanism. | |||
