WebExtension or Add-on?

Hi guys, I want to develop an extension for all browsers and would like to know if it is better to start with WebExtensions at once or keep working on Add-ons until WEX are ready for all.

WebExtensions is the way to go. However in firefox it is still pretty limited. But check out the limitations page: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Add-ons/WebExtensions/Chrome_incompatibilities

If you can accomplish your goal without hitting those limitations you’re gold, go for WEX. Those limitations will slowly disappear as the WEX team expands it.

Btw I love your short form of WEX :wink: Did you come up with that on your own? :wink:

Unless you need to absolutely ship your add-on this year, I think it’s best to start looking into WebExtensions.
