For those not liking the dark UI, you can switch by opening the dev tools, clicking the gear icon on the right and selecting "light theme".
Hi! Just a heads up that folks from the dev tools team will be monitoring this thread and are on-hand to answer questions. We'll try not to thread sit too much. :) In brief, the Developer Edition is a new release channel for Firefox, replacing Aurora (our pre-Beta channel). Everything else about the release cadence is the same. There are four major new features here: 1. The Firefox Tools Adapter ("Valence"), which le…
Firefox is unusable for developers with poor eyesight that use OS-level accessibility features such as high contrast on recent versions of Windows. There is an open bug but no love: [ https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=790706 ]. Firefox forces high-contrast colors, completely destroying HTML rendering, with no option to disable this behavior. Using a high contrast theme in Windows doesn't mean i don't want…
Will this version survive months of usage with multiple open tabs without performance deteriorating massively like the regular firefox? I left FF after my 10th profile reset / reinstall to get back to "normal" performance.

That's amazing. I can't wait until we have standard wire protocols for all of this so that I can stay in an IDE while writing GWT/Coffeescript/JS/etc., e.g.:
(AFAICT both the FF and Chrome teams seem hot on building IDEs into their browsers, but, sorry, that's a step down the all-in-one Netscape Suite road IMO. :-))

One of the most powerful tools in my chest is Firefile ( https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/firefile/ ). Firefile allows you to edit CSS in firebug and save to your stylsheet right from there. It's incredible how this smooths out my workflow and I can't work without it. Firefile, though, doesn't appear to be in development anymore and it's latest release is broken. (I had to make some manual edits to get…
You know you can do this with the CSS inspector in Chrome, without any extension, right?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but that feature is still not included even though there are feature requests for it. I am interested in it in order to emulate print.css . I'm sure it's not the highest priority.

From the top of my mind: 1. HTTP Request builder (think cURL with a nicer GUI and the ability to save presets); 2. Web Proxy, able to "stop-and-modify" requests (think Fiddler or Charles); 3. Network conditions simulator for throttling, packet dropping and limited bandwidth, with profiles (e.g. GPRS); 4. Local Mock REST API, with a few predefined endpoints (e.g. /users/) + the ability to create new ones (with configu…

If I'm alt-tabbing it helps identify which FF instance I am switching to
