Bringing the Open Web to mobile devices: Stakes and Opportunities around Firefox OS

Since the second week of November 2012, it is henceforth possible to test online, the Firefox OS emulator. In fact, Firefox OS project, aims to enable the Open Web as a platform for mobile devices. 

Therefore Firefox OS includes the features like:

New Web standards: here Firefox OS aims to produce an implementation of these new Web standards to free mobile platforms from the encumbrances of the rules and restrictions of existing proprietary platforms.

Freedom from proprietary mobile platforms: here, Mozilla collaborates with OEMs and carriers directly, via the objective to give them more influence to meet the specific needs of their users and market. Users and developers aren't locked in to one platform, so they can access their info and use apps across multiple devices.

Customization for OEMs and operators: here, OEMs and operators will be able to provide content and services across their entire device portfolio, regardless of OS, also will be able to customize user experiences, manage app distribution and retain customer attention.

Via HTML5 and the new Mozilla-proposed standard APIs, Mozilla announces that developers everywhere will be able to create amazing experiences and apps. Developers will no longer need to learn and develop against platform-specific native APIs.

Ending, Firefox OS enhances flexibility and freedom so consumers who use devices powered by Firefox OS won't be locked into one specific.
