The open-source browser Firefox 29 was released, bringing new Zookeeper interfaces and Firefox synchronization functions. Unlike the original Firefox interface, Zookeeper has a monochrome icon, a more modern and simple circle tag, bookmarks, and download Panel. It also provides the same appearance experience as Chrome.
At the same time, users can synchronize the data (bookmarks, passwords, and historical data) of their browsers through email accounts between multiple devices through the Firefox synchronization function. For more information about the latest Firefox version, see release notes.
This article will teach you how to install Firefox 29 on Ubuntu, Linux Mint, Elementary OS, Debian, Fedora, CentOS, OpenSUSE, Mageia, and openmanriva systems.
Because the installation of Firefox 29 is not based on any software library, we must download Firefox 29 from the Mozilla website to extract the archive.
