Firefox supports a wide range of customization options that are well-suited to all skill levels. The toolbar layout can be customized, numerous settings can be configured, and the Mozilla Add-ons directory contains a massive library of extensions and themes to add additional functionality and make Firefox reflect your own needs and personality.

Two other forms of advanced configuration allow even further customization: about:config preference modifications and userChrome.css or userContent.css custom style rules.

Firefox is a work in progress and, to allow for continuous innovation, Mozilla cannot guarantee that future updates won’t impact these customizations.

Mozilla does not officially support adding custom style rules with a userChrome.css or userContent.css file, or using the Configuration Editor (about:config page) to modify preference settings.
