TIL - Debug a Firefox extension 🐞

An SAP community member was facing an issue when trying to import an RSS feed in the Brief Firefox extension. I was curious to learn why it was failing which got me thinking… How can I debug an extension in Firefox?

Steps:

  • Enter about:debugging in the URL bar.
  • In the left-hand menu, click This Firefox.
  • Click Inspect next to the extension.
