any interest in porting to Firefox (as an add-on)? #22

It'd be great to use this in the main add-on area of the nav bar rather than the bookmarks bar.

Any interest in getting that working on Firefox? Asking before I start looking at that in case others already have.

Having this ported to Firefox and published to addons.mozilla.org would be awesome for people using Firefox as their main dev browser! This extension is very useful.

Firefox now supports a bunch of WebExtensions API like Chrome does, so, potentially, there isn't a lot of work involved, but I don't know for sure.

I whipped up a quick wrapper extension using WebExtensions: https://github.com/protestContest/whatfont-webextension

Tested in Firefox, but I think it should work in any browser that supports WebExtensions. Let me know if I'm violating the license or anything.

(Edit) @chengyin I submitted my above extension to the Firefox addons website — let me know if you want to take over maintenance of that

Thank you Chengyin , you are a 👨‍💻🐱‍👤. EDIT - Nearly forgot, eh-🍁, thanks also to you Zack ( "protestContest" ), author of : "WhatFont" by Zack Michener, A wrapper for Chengyhin (Chengyin) Liu's WhatFont tool.

My suggestion for you is to consider renaming the extension something such as : "WhatFont Web-Ext Wrapper - by Zack Michener" A wrapper for Chengyin Liu's WhatFont tool.
