9.1. Hacks 91-100
This chapter describes all the other Firefox browsers that are out
there. The standard installation of Firefox is based on something
called the default build, which is the safest
thing for most people to use. It's a version for
users who don't care about programming or software
design.If you do care about programming or design, there are many other
Firefox variants that you can play with. Large corporations,
hobbyists, volunteers, and entrepreneurs are the main kinds of people
who might want to do so. This kind of hacking is intensive and
time-consuming, though, so it's a matter of
continual gratification rather than instant gratification.Building and improving Firefox is a big job. There's
a horde of people all hammering away on it. They're
ensuring that the development, distribution and promotion processes
get as much attention as possible. You too can be one of those
people, and if you're technically minded or
promotionally minded, it can be a satisfying, enjoyable, and social
experience. It's nice to develop a special bit of
expertise that you can own for yourself. Here's how
to proceed. |
