about:addons
Mark Finkle, Dave Townsend, and I have been working on the first issue of about:addons, the new monthly newsletter for add-on developers, collectors, enthusiasts, and Ken Kovash. We’ll be highlighting stories about AMO, important changes for developers in the API and platform, community news, and more! Don’t miss the Opposing Viewpoints column of the Opinion section, in which Mark and I battle over what would win in a cage match: extensions versus the team of themes+search plugins+language packs.
The first issue is scheduled to go out this Thursday, but be sure to subscribe via email before then so someone doesn’t spoil the ending for you: Subscribe now!
3 commentsAMO Developer Tools Revamp, Part 5: Manage Versions and Files
The next area of AMO Developer Tools being revamped is managing add-on versions and files. Here are some screenshots of the new look:
Changes/new features:
- Ability to delete “empty” versions that have no files
- Ability to add files to a specific version, not just the latest version
- Ability to add and remove target applications, where previously you could only change the minVersion and maxVersions of existing target applications.
- Documentation explaining what all the fields do
- Cleaner/better interface, allowing for future enhancements around versions and files
