XULRunner 6.6.0.0 Developer Preview

Unread post by mrnhmath » 2024-03-02, 19:18

In spirit of advancing and solidifying the Unified XUL Platform as the de facto successor to the Mozilla platform, the XULRunner runtime along with its accompanying SDK has been revived and is now available for testing.

XULRunner 6.6.0.0, based on the latest Pale Moon 33.0.1/Goanna 6.6.0 platform code is the first developer preview. It enables a standalone runtime for Mozilla applications that can be as powerful as Firefox derivates and a software development kit for more in-depth uses of Mozilla technology such as XPCOM. You can learn more about XULRunner in the archived MDN documentation.

Preliminary testing binaries can be found at Pale Moon's FTP server, targeting win32 and linux-x86_64-gtk2.

Wow, this is excellent news :D

Thank you for bringing XULRunner towards a usable state!
