Why are there different types of Mozilla Firefox?

 

Firefox is a fast and famous browser, developed by a non-profit. Firefox's speed and privacy were the key points that brought them up. By hearing all this, at last, you go to Mozilla Firefox Website to download it. But there are different types! Which one should you choose and which one you should download?


STABLE EDITION

Firefox Stable Edition

It is the most used and stable Firefox Browser. It is the one you have seen in your computer lab. Firefox updates it every six weeks, checks and revises and, thus bug-free.


BETA EDITION

It is one step ahead from the stable version. Beta versions have the next update or release of the stable version but sooner. Beta also has some minor security things for good. For instance, a developer can run an unpublished add-on in the beta version, but not in the stable version since the stable version does only allow authorised add-on.


Beta can be good for those who are curious browser to see the next updates. For the developers, we have the next one!


DEV EDITION

This one is a Beta edition with extra but excellent developer tools sprinkled on it. I am using for debugging and design. It is the best! We see extra features like font tab in the inspector tab. If you wish, you can make it as a code editor. 


FIREFOX NIGHTLY

It is 2 steps ahead of the stable edition. You can get what the developers were coding on the same night. You can see the reason for the browser's name. But it can be filled with bugs, and you should update it every day. Developers who want to see the future of coding can use this browser, so they can be ready for it. 


You can sync each browser's history, bookmarks and passwords using the sync option in the settings. I have changed to Firefox from Safari recently and I am looking out for the future of Mozilla Firefox.

Discovery of the closest asteroid by IIT Bombay students.

On  August 16 2020 ,  An asteroid sized 3 to 6 metres (10 to 20 feet) was found just 2950 km above the Earth's surface! The astonishing discovery was recorded by the students of IIT Bombay and Taiwan.   Helping make a discovery like this, so early in my research project, is beyond what I had ever imagined   -Sharma,  a third-year student of mechanical engineering at IIT-B. Named  2020QG,  the closest asteroid ever to be found near Earth without impacting it became an early success for the students. The discovers Kunal Deshmukh and Kritti Sharma and Chen-Yen Hsu at National Central University in Taiwan are a part of an international team seeking out Near-Earth Asteroids.          This is the first image of Asteroid 2020 QG, captured by Caltech's Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) after the asteroid's closest approach to Earth at a distance of 1,830 miles above the planet...

HTML & CSS by John Duckett: Review

If you are passionate about coding and web development, you might know that HTML & CSS are the initial and vital language. You might have a guide and introduction to it on our website. But the most famous one is a book by John Duckett. HTML & CSS by John Duckett  is an outstanding beginner book. Unlike other coding books, this one isinteractive and clean. Each page of the books has an elegant design. The teachings are present on the left side, and the code snippets on the right. You can also find the code source on  their website . It also has codes relevant to HTML5 and CSS3, which are the newest versions of the languages. It is my first coding book, and I am so grateful for that. John Duckett also wrote a Javascript & jQuery book , which is like a sequel for this one.  You can buy it on Amazon by clicking below!
