- ThePinion 15y agoJudging by this: https://apps.mozillalabs.com https://apps.mozillalabs.com I sure hope so!
- troymc 15y agoI guess they'll use open web standards whenever they can, and propose new ones where none currently exist.
- chc 15y agoThe largest reason I can think of why it might not be compatible is that Firefox uses a version of JavaScript that includes a lot of "standard" functions not found in other implementations. If they base it on their expansive version of JavaScript, that would render it incompatible.
- azakai 15y agoYes, it will use web standards. Mozilla is a nonprofit whose goal is to promote the open web.
- 5hoom 15y agoIf they do keep it cross-browser this could be a really great thing. I for one would be very keen to use something like this so long as it has a clean, well documented API and could run anywhere with a standards-compliant webGL browser. Raw webGL is pretty low level stuff, so a good engine/library would make a world of difference. Done well this could be a good way for Mozilla to stay prominent.
