Mozilla and Unity Bring Unity Game Engine to WebGL | The Mozilla Blog
Mozilla and Unity are announcing new deployment tools bringing Unity-authored games to the Web without the need for plugins, made possible thanks to Mozilla-pioneered technologies including WebGL, a Web graphics library and asm.js, a supercharged subset of JavaScript. Unity’s WebGL add-on will be made available with the release of Unity 5.0 later this year. Millions of Unity developers will have t

Firefox Release Cycle Extended by Two Weeks – Future Releases
Mozilla is closing our offices worldwide this holiday season to give our employees nearly two weeks of rest from Dec 20th into the New Year. We want to ensure each Firefox is up to the quality you expect and to give our release managers, QA engineers and developers much needed time off, we’ve extended the release dates in 2014 by two weeks. Rather than January 21, 2014, the next release of Firefo
What Does Mozilla Firefox Mean When We Say “Open”?
Mozilla, the makers of Firefox, champion and protect the open Web. But a lot of you have asked, what does that mean? We asked Mark Surman, Executive Director of Mozilla to put it in it’s simplest terms. Q: What does “open” actually mean? A: Firefox is a great example of what can be accomplished in the open. About 40% of Firefox code was written by more than 40,000 volunteer contributors. Today,
Efficient float32 arithmetic in JavaScript
There are several different ways to represent floating-point numbers in computers: most architectures now use the IEEE754 standards, representing double precision numbers with 64 bits (a.k.a double, or float64) and single precision numbers with 32 bits (a.k.a float32). As its name suggests, a float64 has more precision than a float32, so it’s generally advised to use it, unless you are in a perfor
Staring at the Sun: Dalvik vs. ASM.js vs. Native
As many of you are probably already aware, Mozilla has recently gotten into the mobile OS space with Firefox OS. Firefox OS is built using web technologies like HTML, CSS, and of course Javascript. All Firefox OS apps are built on these technologies, including core platform apps. Given that app logic in Firefox OS will be written in Javascript, one of the questions facing Mozilla’s Javascript engi
The Baseline Compiler Has Landed
This wednesday we landed the baseline compiler on Firefox nightly. After six months of work from start to finish, we are finally able to merge the fruits of our toils into the main release stream. What Is The Baseline Compiler? Baseline (no, there is no *Monkey codename for this one) is IonMonkey’s new warm-up compiler. It brings performance improvements in the short term, and opportunities for ne

Optimizing JavaScript variable access | Luke Wagner's Blog
I recently finished a project to improve how SpiderMonkey implements variable access so I thought this would be a good time to explain how it all works now. Taking a note from mraleph’s post (and SICP), I’ll illustrate the implementation using JavaScript as the implementation language. That is, I’ll translate JavaScript using full-featured variable access into JavaScript that doesn’t, rather like
IonMonkey in Firefox 18
Today we enabled IonMonkey, our newest JavaScript JIT, in Firefox 18. IonMonkey is a huge step forward for our JavaScript performance and our compiler architecture. But also, it’s been a highly focused, year-long project on behalf of the IonMonkey team, and we’re super excited to see it land. SpiderMonkey has a storied history of just-in-time compilers. Throughout all of them, however, we’ve been
Git: Using topic branches and interactive rebasing effectively

From 80 Seconds to 6: Optimizing Our Asset Compression
Before pushing our CSS and JavaScript assets to our CDN, we run them through jingo-minify to concat and minify the files, as well as cache bust them and any resources (such as images) contained inside them. Turns out, this was by far the slowest part of our push process — it took between 80 and 160 seconds for addons.mozilla.org (AMO) assets. It wasn’t a huge priority, since most of the time th
