Welcome to the Jetpack Project! Jetpack's mission is to make it easy to create add-ons for Firefox using the languages of the web—HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
Right now the project is developing one product: the Add-on SDK. The Add-on Builder is now in read-only mode and will be turned off completely in April 2014. Please download your data before then. Learn more.
- The Add-on SDK is a locally-hosted development environment that allows you to easily build add-ons for Firefox.
- The Add-on Builder was an online development environment which allowed you to create and store your add-ons using only your browser.
You can access these products from the Add-on Developer Hub.
