Software

"Apps that teach." Mozilla Webmaker tools like Popcorn, Thimble and X-Ray Goggles help users a) make something amazing on the web, and b) bake in learning as they go. They're designed to teach digital literacy and web mechanics like HTML, CSS and Javascript through making and doing. Here's how you can get involved:

Popcorn

Mozilla Popcorn makes video pop. The Popcorn app and Javascript library make it easy for end-users and developers to make videos interactive, pulling in content from the rest of the web. More info here.

Thimble

Thimble makes it ridiculously simple to create and share your own web pages: Write and edit HTML and CSS right in your browser, instantly preview your work and then host and share finished projects with a single click. More info here.

Open Badges

Learning today happens everywhere. But it's often difficult to get recognition for skills and achievements that happen online or out of school. Mozilla Open Badges helps solve that problem, making it easy for any organization to issue, manage and display digital badges across the web. More info here.

X-Ray Goggles

The X-Ray Goggles make it easy to see and mess around with the building blocks that make up the web. Activate the Goggles to inspect the code behind any web page, from the New York Times to your own blog. Then remix elements with a single click, swapping in your own text, images and more.

Development team

Our development team is spread across the world, with primary activity happening in London, Berlin, New York, Toronto, Vancouver, and San Francisco.

Tools

Mozilla works in the open -- our code for all of these projects is available on Github, and we use a combination of github, bugzilla & lighthouse for our issue tracking. We're also active in IRC -- come on over to #MoFoDev or #foundation on http://irc.mozilla.org/ and give a shout.

Volunteer onboarding

At the moment, we have particular need for:

• Javascript library developers
• Front end hackers (Popcorn Maker templates)
• Graphic Designers

Example tasks: Short-term:

• Designing a template for Popcorn Maker
• Grabbing one of the many tickets in Popcorn.js or Popcornmaker
• Documentation
• Testing (manual and Qunit)
• Build badge display widget
• Build API to allow badge lookup
