Nightly vs. Release

This page serves to document deviations between standard IronFox (Release) builds and Nightly (CI) builds.

Deviations

• IronFox Nightly uses a different mozconfig build file for certain branding elements.

  • The mozconfig branding file for Release builds can be found here.
  • The mozconfig branding file for Nightly builds can be found here.

• IronFox Nightly uses the package ID: org.ironfoxoss.ironfox.nightly.

  • IronFox Release builds use org.ironfoxoss.ironfox.

• IronFox Nightly does not reset the value of devtools.debugger.remote-enabled on launch.

  • This preference controls whether remote debugging is enabled. On Release builds, it is reset on the browser’s launch, to improve privacy and security.
  • On Nightly builds, remote debugging is still disabled by default, but, in order to allow easier testing/troubleshooting, the preference will not automatically reset.
