The project connects two generations: **the original Firefox OS interface and applications**, and **the web engine maintained by Mozilla**. The aim is to let one evolve without having to rewrite the other for every release.

The features described below refer to the locally tested development version, not a release available to download here yet.

**One project, two ways to run it: the Linux desktop emulator and the Vulpes OS - Preview Android application (APK).** They share Gaia and Vulpes services, with Gecko integration adapted to each platform.

> **Publication in progress:** the three Android Previews are prepared for Releases; uploading them requires raising the server’s file size limit. Full sources, the desktop distribution and their installation instructions are being prepared. The screenshots below show the desktop prototype.

## 📥 Android versions
|
||||
|
||||
**Recommended version: Vulpes OS - Preview 2.7-156.0.1**, the latest of the three builds. APKs will be published in [Releases](https://nnsprod.com/git/oversu/VulpesOS/releases), with English/French notes and a `SHA256SUMS.txt` checksum file. **Downloads are awaiting publication.**

|

|
||||
Once published, the APK can be installed by opening the file on Android. Successive versions share the same package ID and signature: installing the newer build over the previous one preserves application data.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Declared minimum: Android 8.0 / API 26.** Validated on an Android 16 / API 36 emulator; other configurations still need testing.
|
||||
- **Approximately 592 MiB per APK**, including ARM64, 32-bit ARM and x86_64 architectures.
|
||||
- **Development Preview:** it does not replace Android or provide cellular calls/SMS. Android media import remains to be ported.
|
||||
- **Linux desktop:** a separate development environment, with no ready-to-install public distribution yet. This simulator runs Gaia; it does not emulate all phone hardware.
|
||||
|
||||
APKs will be attached to Releases, keeping binaries out of Git history. Tags for these historical builds will identify their downloads; they will not yet contain their complete build sources.
