What is Firefox OS?
Firefox OS is an open-source operating system – made for smartphones, tablet computers and smart TVs – designed by Mozilla and external contributors, based on the rendering engine of their Firefox web browser and the Linux kernel.
Firefox OS is designed to provide a complete, community-based alternative operating system, for running web applications directly or those installed from an application marketplace. The applications use open standards and approaches such as JavaScript and HTML5, a robust privilege model, open web APIs that can communicate directly with hardware, e.g. cellphone hardware.
Development of Firefox OS for smartphones was ceased in February 2016; development of Firefox OS for smart TV terminated in September 2016.
