Firefox Tab Suspender is an open source (only source code, see license) extension for Firefox Browser 59+.
Extension's target are people who use older computers or just want to reduce browser's ram usage. For this reasons I strive to make Firefox Tab Suspender lightweight and performant as much as it is possible.
After install, extension will suspend unused cards according to user's settings.
Thanks to author of Chrome's The Great Suspender. Notice that Firefox Tab Suspender at the base is highly inspired by his work.
Public development roadmap is avaible under this link.
Task list for contributors is in plans, for now this list should be enough.
Simplified project structure.
Details worth to pay attention:
- Generating big amounts of styles in development has no cost in production because of that styles are cleaned up in build process. Final stylesheet contains only used styles
- CSS convention is highly based on SUIT naming and organizing convention
- If it is possible - instead of writing single style's class, generate full spectrum of possibilities
- WASM is injected after user settings load in place of //= ../.tmp/service.js comment
- There is no need of multiply or copying images into src folder, final package contains everything in one folder
if you are interested in contributing and developmenting of extension there are some tips:
- Always request merge to 'develop' branch - not to 'master' branch!
- Work on branches which has prefix 'FTS-' and number as suffix like 'FTS-3', exceptions are any small patches or small bugfixes
- List of tasks you can find under this link
- In case of any questions make issue or feel free and ask in way that you prefer
