Firefox for Mobile Devices
--------------------------
We have several different mobile products aimed at different tasks,
devices, and audiences:
- `Building Firefox for
Android <https://geckoview.dev/contributor/geckoview-quick-start>`_.
(Codename: Fennec)
- `Building Firefox for iOS <https://developer.mozilla.org/docs/Mozilla/Firefox_for_iOS>`_,
our general-purpose browser for iOS with desktop sync built-in.
- `Building Firefox
Focus <https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/focus>`_, our
privacy-focused browser for
`iOS <https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/focus-ios>`_ and
`Android <https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/focus-android>`_.
For both Desktop and Mobile development, please bear the following in
mind:
- While you can build Firefox on older hardware it can take quite a bit
of time to compile on slower machines. Having at least 8GB of RAM is
recommended, and more is always better. The build process is both CPU
and I/O intensive, so building on a machine with an SSD is also
strongly preferred.
- Fast broadband internet is strongly recommended as well. Both the
development environment and the source code repository are quite
large.
- Though you can build Firefox to run on 32-bit machines, the build
process for almost all of our products requires a 64-bit OS.
