Line 47: Line 48:

One of the reasons I use Mozilla Firefox is its huge universe of extensions, scripts, and other add-ons which can make it behave the way you want it to. I've customized my Firefox installation pretty extensively.

This list is current as of Firefox 4.0.

Extensions

Customization

Web development

Other stuff

Privacy

UI and Behavior

KDE integration add-ons

Mozilla/Mozilla Labs

Older stuff

Extensions that I don't use anymore.

  • Tiny Menu: incompatible with Firefox 4?

  • Grab and Drag: for my tablet PC pipe dream.

  • Operator: slow (difficult for an extension to parse DOM for microformats).
