Support for Web Extensions #51

Closed Coder206 closed 8 years ago

It would be nice to be able to harness some power from the FireFox Marketplace for Web Extensions

Could you explain?

The B2G OS team is in the transition process to port Firefox OS (core) apps to Web Extensions.

The Firefox Marketplace is being discontinued. But Web Extensions could be a valuable way to extend the functionality of the tablet.

That isn't really true. The core system functions were made into chrome and others will become web apps. B2G OS doesn't yet support Web Extensions, but I hope it will :)

I'll let you know when that's the case. Right now B2G OS cares about getting the core functionality again.
