We want to grow our community of developers by orders of magnitude through making add-on creation much more accessible, and yet more powerful by developing it as an extensible platform for innovation itself. Many useful Jetpack Feature\u2019s can be written in under a dozen lines of code.<\/p>\n<p>Specifically, Jetpack will be an exploration in using Web technologies to enhance the browser (e.g. HTML, CSS and Javascript), with the goal of allowing anyone who can build a Web site to participate in making the Web a better place to work, communicate and play.<\/p>\n<p>Most importantly, from a user perspective, Jetpack will allow new features to be added to the browser without a restart or compatibility issues, resulting in little to no disruption to the online experience.<\/p>\n<p>As with all Mozilla Labs initiatives, Jetpack is an open source project and everyone is welcome to participate in its design, development &amp; experimentation.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\" mce_style=\"text-align: center;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/jetpack.mozillalabs.com\/images\/Jetpack_logo.png\" mce_src=\"https:\/\/jetpack.mozillalabs.com\/images\/Jetpack_logo.png\" alt=\"Mozilla Labs Jetpack\"><\/p>\n<p>The team also highlights how you can participate in the project:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>This is a 0.1 release, so it unpolished, unfinished, and still highly prototyped.
