about:home Persona Switcher Snippet

Snippet for the Firefox about:home page that showcases personas and allows users to preview and install the personas directly from the about:home page.

Development

• Set up home-snippets-server and install home-snippets-switcher.
• Open a terminal.
• git clone git://github.com/mozilla/about-home-persona-switcher.git
• cd about-home-persona-switcher
• Paste the contents of ./snippet.html into a new snippet via the home-snippets-server admin interface.
  • If you started the home-snippets-server with python manage.py runserver the admin interface is located at http://localhost:8000/admin/.
• In the about-home-persona-switcher directory, run the command python -m SimpleHTTPServer 3033
  • This runs a web server in the current directory on port 3033. If you want to use a different port, you will have to change the command as well as changing the iframe link in the snippet code.
• Navigate to about:home and make sure you point the home-snippets-switcher to http://localhost:8000
