🤖 For Developers and Contributors

Floorp’s repository is now cleaner. Floorp’s code has been rewritten and moved to a Floorp core approach that shares less of Firefox’s code with Floorp’s code.

Until the past version, Floorp took the method of overwriting and adding files to the Firefox code, but from version 10.5.0, the folder that was being tested was newly created in the Firefox source code and the Floorp code was added. It has been completely replaced by placing it in place and calling Floorp’s code from the Firefox side.

For translators: Please put all your Floorp language data in browser/floorp.ftl. Floorp interprets the language data entered here and automatically assigns the language data to each site and UI. You no longer need to bother writing to each file.

For code contributors: Floorp’s code is all in the ./floorp folder as described above. Follow the codebase when creating new features for Floorp. Also, keep your commit messages consistent. If you modify Firefox’s functionality, it’s okay to change Firefox’s code as well.

Floorp will also begin follow-up testing to Rapid Release Firefox over the next eight weeks. Only bug fixes and security fixes are planned for 10.7.0.
