Add a "welcome page" after you installed the addon
In which you could insert some information (link to GitHub, and FAQ)
What would be needed in the manifest.json? (Perhaps link to an extension where you observed the behaviour, so I could take a look).
I don't think that there is a permission for that but we should implement something.
I wouldn't know how to know when to trigger the opening of a new page as welcome screen. I think, I've saw it somewhere, but can't recall the add-on off-hand.
The way to do it is to check if there are any settings, if it is missing means that is a new installation.
There is an API now https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/API/runtime/onInstalled
I was thinking to add also a text about some tools like telegram or whatsapp that open the client installed in the machine as alert in that page.
we can redirect user to a welcome webpage when someone installs our add on?
Yes this is the purpose of this ticket, we just need to do it
great I can work on it
