Puma Browse is one example of a new web browser that has been built on top of MOZAC and GeckoView. I’d expect to see it migrate to Fenix by the end of the year.

The Tor Browser for Android has long been a fork of Firefox for Android. These components are a modernization of the old codebase as well as a direct competitor to WebView - the web engine that’s built-in to Android, as well as Google’s ChromiumView. It’s built on GeckoView and Mozilla Android Components ( MOZAC) a set of reusable components for mobile app developers that makes it easier to build a web browser based on Mozilla technology. Here’s my review of Mozilla’s new flagship mobile browser as a long-time user and as an extension developer.įirefox Daylight’s user interface is minimal, but it represents a large amount of work under the hood. Mozilla has released its redesigned and rearchitected Firefox browser for Android (codename “Daylight” and “Fenix”) through the Google Play Store everywhere.
