Changes for web developers

Changes for add-on developers

  • Adds support for the sandbox manifest key, enabling extensions to designate pages that load with an opaque origin. A sandboxed page can use eval() and similar constructs that are otherwise blocked by the extension's content security policy. The sandboxed page can only access WebExtension APIs or the rest of the extension through Window.postMessage(). (Firefox bug 1685123)

Experimental web features

These features are shipping in Firefox 154 but are disabled by default. To experiment with them, search for the appropriate preference on the about:config page and set it to true. You can find more such features on the Experimental features page.
