How do you develop extensions then? Surely it must be possible somehow.


Not impossible, at all.

The answer is Firefox Nightly or Firefox Developer, you're freely to install unsigned addons in these editions.

I do use Firefox for Android Nightly. How would I install an unsigned addon there?

I don't think it's possible. ... but if it were, this would be very useful to get the Anti-Paywall addons back.


It's called Sideload XPI, iirc Firefox Nightly allows you to sideload XPI if you enable Experimental by tapping Firefox logo in About 7 times.

But it's easier with Ice Raven or Smart Cookie Web Preview:
