'''DevTools Shim''' is responsible for installing the DevTools add-on as needed. The Shim will auto-install the add-on for existing DevTools users by default. The Shim is listening to the DevTools keyboard shortcuts and provides install methods at other various entry points like about:debugging. When a new user presses a DevTools keyboard shortcut Firefox will prompt them, asking if they want to install DevTools. If a developer responds yes the DevTools add-on will be installed and will update itself in the background from that point on. | '''DevTools Shim''' is responsible for installing the DevTools add-on as needed.
