It doesn't seems to be using any Chrome api, so porting it to the Firefox SDK should be a trivial matter. See https://gist.github.com/Spittie/93adf218040d470abd40 ( http://81.4.126.121/i/140001

I'd love to see optional typing in Python, I wonder if there is any official reasons about why it never got introduced. I very rarely change the type of a variable, so it would be essentially free speed and free speeds for me. I actual

As a small "experiment", I've been trying to use only free software for a while (firmware/driver blobs excluded) on my Nexus 7 (2012). I can say that it's definitively doable, but it really depends on what one need.

I agree. I don't have much experience, but writing an addon for Firefox was a pain. When debugging, it's a constant "cfx run", read cryptic output, close browser, try to fix, rinse and repeat. Compare it with Chrome wher

As far as I know, the console embedded in the page (ctrl+shift+k) show events only from that page, while the browser console (ctrl+shift+j) show events from all the tabs. I don't know if there is a way to decide which tabs get logged i

Indeed. I usually rely on ZSH + the zsh-history-substring-plugin, on Bash + ^r or my .bashrc/.zshrc, but this looks like a better solution. The synching sound sweet, but I wonder if the data get encrypted. It's opensource so I can
