With the Add-on SDK you can present information to the user, such as a guide to using your add-on, in a browser tab. You can supply the content in an HTML file in your add-on's "data" directory.
Note: This module has no effect on Fennec.
For pages like this, navigational elements such as the
Awesome Bar,
Search Bar, or
Bookmarks Toolbar
are not usually relevant and distract from the content
you are presenting. The addon-page module provides a simple
way to have a page which excludes these elements.
To use the module import it using require(). After this,
the page loaded from "data/index.html" will not contain
navigational elements:
var addontab = require("sdk/addon-page");
var data = require("sdk/self").data;
require("sdk/tabs").open(data.url("index.html"));
