In this post, I will teach you how to create your first Firefox OS App. Of course we are all familiar with Hello World. First, I would like to take note of the prerequisites of Firefox OS Development.
You should, at least, be knowledgeable in the following:
- HTML or HTML5
- CSS or CSS3
- JavaScript
What we need for this tutorial:
- Sublime Text 3 or any text editor you are familiar with
- Firefox OS Simulator
Installation of Firefox OS Simulator:
Before we get to start programming, we need to install first the simulator. Download the Firefox OS Simulator.
After downloading, open our favourite Firefox browser, click on the Firefox menu -> Web Developer – > Firefox OS Simulator
.
Here’s the screenshot of your Firefox Dashboard:
Toggle the Simulator button to “Running“.
That’s it! Congratulations you already have it setup for development 🙂 Stay tuned for the 2nd part of my tutorial.
