== Introduction ==
Under ConstructionFUEL (Firefox User Extension Library) is a JavaScript Library designed to help developers build extensions using terminology and interfaces that are familiar to them. It will be usable in Firefox 1.5-3.0.FUEL is about making it easier for extension developers to be productive, by minimizing some of the XPCOM formality and adding some "modern" JavaScript ideas. We want to start with areas that will provide the most benefit.[http://wiki.mozilla.org/FUEL source]

== Project LeaderTODO ==* At the moment FUEL is manually added to the build (ssee below). It will be much easier if the build script did it for us :) ==
Name(== Project Details ==At the moment FUEL only works on Firefox3. This project is dedicated in back porting FUEL to make it work with Firefox2 == fuelApplication.js =='''fuelApplication.js''' is located in '''mozilla/browser/fuel/src''' and will be the main file that will undergo the changes.You can get the latest update of it [http://www.samerziadeh.com/mozilla/fuelApplication.js here]. It's) just a plain text file, it doesn't have the fancy change revision. Below are the list of primary people working on the projectfunctions I tested with and what did and didn't work.

Provides more depth than The build script doesn't generate the Project Description. This fuel part automatically, which is why fuel is fetched after the place for technical discussions, project specs, or other detailsbuild is done. If this gets very longThe following steps will force the generation of the makefiles manually, you might consider breaking this part into multiple pages and linking to themthen rebuild fuel and app<pre>cd ../objdir../build/autoconf/make-makefiles browser/fuelmake -C browser/fuelmake -C browser/app</pre>
== Project News ==and there you have it, FUEL is now built into ff2
This is where your regular updates will go. In these you should discuss the status or your work, your interactions with other members of the community (e.g., Seneca and Mozilla), problems you have encountered, etc.== Links ==
