Setting nightTab as your Firefox homepage

Firefox does not allow the "homepage" to be replaces by an addon. However there is a workaround:

  • Open a new Firefox window
  • Open Firefox Preferences and open a new tab (nightTab)
  • In Firefox preferences under Home, change Homepage and new windows to Custom URLs...
  • Then click Use Current Page.

nightTab will now appear as the homepage.


Development

When developing use:

  • npm run dev

A Development copy will be created in /dev/. Open /dev/index.html in a browser to test. Make changes to files in the /src/ directory and refresh browser to see changes.

To build the project use:

  • npm run build

A web ready folder will be created in /build/web/. A browser addon/extension ready zip will be created in /build/extension/.
