Top-level repository for Firefox Accounts

Welcome to Firefox Accounts

Firefox Accounts is the authentication and authorization system for Cloud Services at Mozilla, providing access to services such as Firefox Sync, Pocket and Addons.Mozilla.org.

This repository contains documentation for getting started with Firefox Accounts development. Most of the actual code for the service lives in sub-repositories linked from the docs below.

Using your Firefox Accounts

You can create an account or sign in directly on https://accounts.firefox.com, but you almost certainly want to start by using an account-attached service such as Firefox Sync.

Integrating with Firefox Accounts

Developing a service that needs Firefox Accounts authentication? Head on over to the Firefox Accounts portal on MDN for a description of the system, how it works, and how to plug into it.
