Welcome to the Mozilla Developer Center (MDC). Also known by its project name, "Devmo" (short for "DEVeloper.Mozilla.Org"), this site has been designed to be a comprehensive, usable, accurate, and valuable resource for web developers.

Please note that this wiki is for developer documentation only. Your cooperation is appreciated.

[edit] Project History

The Mozilla Developer Center (a.k.a. Devmo) project started in early 2005, when the Mozilla Foundation obtained a license from AOL to use the original DevEdge content. The DevEdge content was mined for still-useful material, which was then migrated by volunteers into this wiki so it would be easier to update and maintain.

Since then, the project has continued growing and now forms a central nexus for all developer documentation related to the Mozilla Project and Mozilla technologies. In time, it is hoped that the Mozilla Developer Center will become a resource that web designers, application developers, and extension and theme writers visit on a daily basis..
