# WebExtensions notes | ||
|
||
## High | ||
* DON'T FORGET THUNDERBIRD | ||
* Test the WebExtension. Especially on release Firefox. Publish for prelim review/signing. | ||
* Show message to Firefox users about switching to new extension. Probably open options tab with huge message at top. | ||
* Decide on whether to keep using AMO. | ||
|
||
|
||
## Steps (after work done) | ||
1. Release WebExtension. Get it signed (happens immediately?). Maybe get it preliminarily reviewed. | ||
2. Release XUL update. Point Firefox users at WebExtension. | ||
|
||
## Better steps | ||
|
||
This results in a cleaner migration for existing Firefox users. | ||
|
||
1. Release webext version with new ID. | ||
|
||
2. Modify old version to detect if it's running on Firefox, prompt the user to install the new extension and uninstall the old extension. | ||
``` | ||
AddonManager.getInstallForURL('https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/downloads/latest/markdown-here/addon-375281-latest.xpi', function(install) {console.log(arguments); install.install()}, 'application/x-xpinstall'); | ||
AddonManager.getAddonByID('[email protected]', function(install) {console.log(arguments); install.uninstall()}); | ||
``` | ||
|
||
3. Coordinate with AMO reviewers to allow the install/uninstall action. (Via IRC?) | ||
