Welcome to part-2 of the series. In this part we will start by submitting the firefox extension, which we created in part-1.

You need to have a firefox account to publish addons to mozilla. Create one and login to any firefox browser.

After that you have to first package your extension. You can find the details of different OS here. We need to go to our folder, where all of code and other files are and select all of them, and click on Compress.

Compress

Now, our zip file is ready and we can submit the addon. I am following instruction from this link.

As per the instruction, we should go to the link https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/ and click on Register or Log in button.

Login

On the next screen, need to give some information and then click on Create My Profile.

After that we are been taken to the same addons screen, and we need to click on Developer Hub here.

So, once you move to the Developer hub it will show Awaiting Review and it might take some time to be approved. Mozilla team will notify you by email once it is approved.
