❓ But how does it work?

Custom startup-script (aka mozilla.cfg here) is loaded using local-settings.js. This startup-script adds "loader" scripts from utils folder that loads arbitrary javascript files from the script folder into Firefox
mozilla.cfg also helps in setting local webpage as your homepage. Details in Installation (Currently Not Working!).
