Marketplace/TV

Overview

Firefox OS will be used as a platform for TV. This means that there are two distinct efforts required:

1. Creation of a TV-specific UI
2. Augmentation of the back-end/API to support TV content

Content for TV

Content for TV is confined to hosted apps and websites.

NEEDED: content guidelines.

Proposed Phases

1. Initial launch – only 5-10 big name sites, ~10 webapps (hosted). Content Services will need to verify the regions the content works in (is accessible to). Data will be imported by Mozilla, not submitted by the public. Like with webapps, we'll use a language for the listing (if we have it), default to English if we don't.
2. Subsequent launch – requires submission tool. The other websites content (MOWs) also does not have a submission tool.

Engineering information

• initial technical musings
• Front-end repository (back-end is zamboni)

QA info

To install the simulator, follow the instructions on https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Firefox_OS/TVs_connected_devices#Developing_TV_apps.

Back-end Sprint plan

• Sprint 1: 2015/11/10 - 2015/11/16 (roughly)
  • 1221797 (.5),
  • 1223547 (.5),
  • 1221793 (1),
  • 1221795 (.5)
• define/document API specs and disseminate: 1223643 this should allow for the creation of a mock API for front-end development to use, with minimal changes required for true integration.
• Sprint 2: 2015/11/18 - 2015/11/26 (roughly)
  • 1205503 (2),
  • 1221792 (1),
  • 1214697 (.5),
  • 1223551 (2)
