Firefox Running On The Android OS? Yes…Kinda

Wow, look at what we have here, Firefox, not Fennec running on the Android OS. Okay, more like ‘on the Android OS.’ Mastermind behind this lovely vision, Vladimir VukiÄ‡eviÄ‡, is working to bring the full Firefox browsing experience to Android, and believes that it is entirely possible.

Developer Vladimir VukiÄ‡eviÄ‡:

You’ll note that this is the full Firefox interface, and not the Fennec/Firefox Mobile UI; we’re testing with the full interface because it’s significantly more complex than the mobile UI and stresses Gecko much more. So, if the full UI works, then Fennec should work fine as well.

This may very well end up in the hands of users sometime this year, then again, maybe not. All eyes will be on this developing piece of browsing intrigue throughout the year.
