The extension was avaliable at the link below. But the addon can't be found anymore.

Yeah i know this, they didn't like the fact that we had the full library folders and not just the .min files.

I tried fixing it but it kept giving me an error so i tried removing and re-releasing the extension, but that can't be done before we make a new release.

I will try and clean up the lib folder for duplicates.

I will be happy to setup a build system, using nodejs and webpack.
This would make it possible to automattically generate a minified and optimized javascript file.
This could enable hot reloading, and support for ES7 features.

Hot reloading?
Well if you want to that would be cool, would that also work for the chrome store?

It would also work for chrome :)
Hot reloading means that as soon as you save a file, the plugin wil get updated live in the browser.

Ohh thats cool. It's fine with me.

I'm releasing v2.3.1 using the old method, to get it back on the firefox store as fast as possible

But a better release method is welcome

Sooo the plugin was just pulled again from the store. This time with the comment that our audience is to limited :-(

We will have to self host the extension instead 👎

Response from firefox:

Details:

We could upload the signed extension to github, in a release?

Jep thats the plan. The problem is that the users will have no idea when a new version is out. We could make a checker but then we would have to alter the domain permissions.
