Mozilla Firefox OS

Mozilla Firefox OS was an open-source operating system designed for smartphones, built on web technologies like HTML5 and JavaScript. It aimed to provide a more flexible, affordable alternative to traditional mobile platforms by running apps through web browsers rather than native code. Launched in 2013, Firefox OS focused on connected devices and low-cost smartphones, offering a simple app ecosystem and user interface. Despite its innovative approach, it struggled to compete with established systems like Android and iOS, leading Mozilla to discontinue it in 2016. Its development contributed to web-focused, open-source mobile technology ideas.
