Shield Recipe Client
|
|
====================
|
|
|
|
Normandy (aka the Shield Recipe Client) is a targeted change control
|
|
system, allowing small changes to be made within a release of Firefox,
|
|
such as studies.
|
|
|
|
It downloads recipes and actions from :ref:`Remote Settings <services/remotesettings>`
|
|
and then executes them.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
Previously, the recipes were fetched from the `recipe server`_, but in `Bug 1513854`_
|
|
the source was changed to *Remote Settings*. The cryptographic signatures are verified
|
|
at the *Remote Settings* level (integrity) and at the *Normandy* level
|
|
(authenticity of publisher).
