Summary
What is Jetpack?
Jetpack is a project to make it easy to build Firefox add-ons using common web technologies like HTML, JavaScript, and CSS. Our goal is to enable anyone who can build a web site to participate in making the Web a better place to work, communicate, and play.
What is the Jetpack SDK?
The Jetpack SDK is an environment for building Firefox add-ons. It aims to provide a comprehensive set of tools and high-level APIs for simple development of powerful add-ons.
The SDK includes tools for running, testing, and packaging add-ons along with a variety of APIs for extending Firefox, including an initial set of "high-level" APIs that make add-on development simple and powerful.
