Firefox extension development extension learning tool

Some tools and tutorials are required to develop Firefox extensions. Here, based on the author's income, I will give a brief description:

Tutorial:

For the tutorial, there are basically no Chinese documents on the Internet, which is a simple and very simple getting started instruction at most. So the tutorial is mainly to the official website: https://developer.mozilla.org/En

 

Tools:

Some tools will be mentioned in the tutorials on the official website.

1. Firefox 3.0, this must be indispensable. 3.0 is recommended here. Because the latest version 3.6 or 3.7 has not been updated and followed up, it is better to install more extensions with 3.0.

2. firebug. Needless to say. Although I am just a cainiao, I just use this to locate what XUL elements correspond.CodeBut it helps a lot.

3. Extension developer. Recommended on the official website. Of course, the installation is complete. This is a set of Firefox extensions, including packaging xpi functions and previewing XUL.

4. spket IDE. Developed and extended IDE, which is recommended on the official website and is easy to use. However, it seems that xpi cannot be packaged or tested. However, it is good to use the editor only. It is very comfortable to use it to look at the extended code ......

5. XUL explorer. Preview the XUL effect.

6. emeditor. Quickly open the code file and modify it. The most important feature is search. When researching people's code, JavaScript code is too difficult to find some variables or object definitions. The "search in files" function of emeditor is very useful. The search results are previewed ...... (Later I found that the search-file function of spket IDE can also be used directly, which is similar to the search function of Eclipse, but the disadvantage is that no preview is provided, you need to double-click each time to know how to match .)

 

In addition, I want to find some JavaScript tools ...... I will try again later.
