Welcome to the fourth Browser Architecture Newsletter!
A lot of the issues that the Browser Architecture team are digging into are
larger than our team. Our goal is to discuss and review entire product
level architecture issues and build consensus around solutions. We’re
interested in engaging with engineers around the organization. We’re
actively reaching out to folks but if you want to talk to us we’d sure love
to hear from you. You can find us in #browser-arch on IRC or Slack.
XBL Removal
Since our last update, we've completed the design review for a plan to move
away from XBL in Firefox
<https://mozilla.github.io/firefox-browser-architecture/text/0007-xbl-design-review-packet.html>.
Thanks to the long list of people who guided the creation of that plan, and
the chair and panel for putting it through its paces. We're working through
some follow-up investigations; expect a separate email with more details
soon.
We sent out a survey for front-end developers to try to understand how to
target our architecture and workflow improvements. The results will be
published soon, but one thing this survey revealed was that a lack of
documentation is holding developers back. We'll be digging into this more
in the future.
