The Jetpack team is proud to announce the release of Add-on SDK 1.4! This version of the SDK has the most new features of all the releases we have made since the 1.0 release. Some of the new features include:
- Thanks to community members Hernan Colmeiro and Erik Vold, we have a new Simple Prefs API allowing you to easily create preferences for your add-on. Please see the documentation to learn how to use this new API.
- We have a brand new loader which is simplified and should give us even better performance.
- We have a new layout to the XPI files generated by the SDK. *Please note this if you have hard-coded any resource://URL links!! You should fix those links as specified in the release notes!*
For more new features and known issues,please see the Release Notes.
