Building Firefox On Windows.

Compiling:

To compile on Windows, you need to:

Install Mozilla build setup tools: MozillaBuildSetup-Latest.exe.
Install Microsoft visual studio community edition: here.
Within Visual Studio: ** Desktop development with C++. ** Windows 10 SDK (at least 10.0.19041.0). ** C++ ATL for v143 build tools (x86 and x64).
Open start-shell terminal and basically do the following:

wget -q "https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/raw-file/default/python/mozboot/bin/bootstrap.py"
python3 bootstrap.py --no-interactive --application-choice=browser

If you choose to, you can now build Firefox Nightly as follows:

cd mozilla-unified
./mach build
./mach package
./mach run # or just run it..

Or you can just forget about that, and remove the firefox tree:

rm -rf bootstrap.py mozilla-unified

To build the current windows setup.exe, we do the following:

git clone --recursive https://gitlab.com/librewolf-community/browser/windows.git
cd windows
./build.py all
