The Manager explained that the appearance and ergonomics of navigation are similar to what are users of Firefox for Android browser. All the main functions are present, the Web navigation tabs to the creation of a directory of favorites, etc. It is therefore on the code of Fennec (Firefox mobile version) that relies this development whose goal is first and foremost adapt Firefox to the Metro interface, thought for touch devices.
