mozilla/addons-server — 🕶 addons.mozilla.org Django app and API 🎉

Description and use

Mozilla Add-ons Server is the backend Django application and REST API that powers addons.mozilla.org, the official marketplace for Firefox extensions and themes. It provides tools for add‑on developers to upload, manage, and distribute their packages, while handling authentication, reviews, ratings, and statistics for end users. The open‑source project enables contributors to extend, customize, and deploy the full add‑on ecosystem.

Problem

mozilla/addons-server helps teams reuse service infrastructure instead of rebuilding common backend pieces.

Outcome

Medium: useful for prototypes or internal workflows, with dependency and maintenance checks before production.

Workflow

• ship API services faster
• reuse backend infrastructure
• standardize service patterns
