Mobile/Projects/Set top box optimization

Overview/Goals: Responsive Design v1

• First iteration of providing better visual support for Firefox for Android when installed on a set top box (STB)
• Further iterations will refine the visual and navigation experience on a larger screen
• STBs may be plugged into laptop monitors or TVs, therefore the design must suit both methods

Specifications

MVP:

• Use landscape Phone UI
• Hide title bar by default
• Fix "Tools" submenu (or hide it)
  • Can't scroll
  • Can't get back
• Navigating page by tabbing through links on the page
  • scrolling with control sticks and tapping with the trackpad is really annoying
• Font size - web content
• Font size - menu

Nice to have

• Better start page navigation
• URLbar autocomplete
• Auto full screen videos
• Preloaded about:home content

User stories

• As a user, I want to plug an STB console into a computer setup and browse my favourite web content comfortably.
• As a user, I want to plug an STB console into a TV setup and browse my favourite web content comfortably.

Quality criteria

1. User stories are satisfied
2. Specifications are met
3. (Not MVP but desired): dynamic URL bar reappears easily when using a physical (non touch) input method (controller, keyboard) in an intuitive and reproducible manner
