Australis-Styled Widgets Presentation

Australis is landing in Firefox Nightly - Mozilla UX
November 18, 2013

A very exciting set of changes is landing in Firefox Nightly. We’ve been calling the project Australis, but, simply, it’s the next iteration of the Firefox user interface. It’s not quite finished, and it needs more polish, which is exactly why we’re so eager to get it out to a wider set of the community.

So, what is Australis?
1. It’s the most beautiful and detail-obsessed iteration of Firefox’s visual design yet: modern, clean, and comfortable.
2. More fundamentally, it’s a streamlining and simplification of the default interface, to declutter and better focus on how people use a browser today.
3. Finally, it includes a new simple way to customize the browser and make it your own.

There are also many side-benefits: a better more extensible interface model that will accommodate future features and additions; a simpler presentation of add-ons as equals to built-in browser features; and a familiar look and feel across all our platforms so that Firefox feels like Firefox everywhere. We’ll be writing more about all of these in future posts.

I think it's funny that they're using an old Firefox logo image for their presentation on the new "UX" (funny-strange and funny-haha).

That would make you the "one out of five" (given Australis has an estimated 20% "approval rating" among users).

Let's all give a cheer for Mozilla (with a football bowl theme): "Push it back, push it back, w-a-a-y-y-y back!"
