- Mozilla is an open source foundation focused on promoting choice, innovation and opportunities on the internet through open projects. - As mobile devices have become more popular, the web has the potential to become a universal platform across all devices through open web apps and APIs, allowing developers to create apps that work across platforms without native code. - Firefox OS is a new open mobile operating system from Mozilla that treats everything as a web app, using HTML5 and open web technologies, in order to bring the power of the open web to more people around the world.
