Beginner’s guide to creating a firefox add-on

Having spent the last few months developing a firefox (and IE!) add-on at the office for one of our clients, I thought it would be nice to share some of the resources that helped us get to where we are today:

http://www.devilsworkshop.org/shortest-tutorial-for-firefox-extensiontoolbar-development/ – ostensibly the shortest beginner’s guide to developing an add-on.  I’ve yet to see a shorter or better explained tutorial.

http://firefoxdev.blogspot.com/ a blog dedicated to tips and tricks when developing

Of course the original documentation is useful at times and can be found here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Extensions
