This code supplies the basic bits and pieces needed to build a simple, restartless add-on for Firefox on Android, which uses a native widget UI. Since Firefox on Android does not use XUL for the UI, building an add-on is a little different than building an add-on for desktop Firefox.

-
Edit the
install.rdf: Please change the ALL CAPS areas with text specific to your add-on. -
Add code to
bootstrap.js: The current code adds some menus, doorhangers and context menus that don't do very much right now. -
Edit
build: Update this file to specify a file name for your XPI, as well which version of Firefox you want to use to test the XPI file. -
Run
./build: This creates the XPI and optionally pushes it to your device. You must have adb installed for the push step to work.
