*Firefox Mint* is a concept for a browser that prioritizes **mental clarity, relaxation, and user well-being**. It combines the minimalism of Firefox Focus with the wellness features of Opera Air to create a peaceful, non-intrusive browsing experience. This prototype is meant to inspire a new Firefox variant that is **calm-first, clean in design, and intelligent in support** — helping users browse better *and* feel better. --- **🌿 Key Features:** * **Minimalist Theme Inspired by Shyfox:** The prototype uses the [Shyfox CSS UI theme](https://github.com/Screetsec/Themes-for-Firefox) to achieve a clean, low-distraction layout with side tabs. 👉Mozilla could consider developing an *official* version of this theme — specifically tailored to Firefox Mint’s vision, with polished visuals and accessibility in mind. * **Nature-Inspired Color Scheme:** Uses dark green and mint green tones with natural wallpapers to create a relaxing visual atmosphere. * **Optional Ambient Music & Sounds:** Background lo-fi or nature soundscapes can be toggled on/off — completely optional and non-intrusive. * **Breathing Reminders:** Gentle, customizable prompts to take a deep breath and reset — never forced or disruptive. * **Memory Optimizer:** Helps maintain smooth performance by freeing up system resources in the background. * **Feature Limiter:** Lets users set a cap on how many active features they want — to reduce feature overload and decision fatigue. * **“Calm Mode” Toggle:** One click activates a dark theme, hides distractions, starts ambient music, and enables focus features all at once. --- **✨ Potential Enhancements:** * **Personalized Onboarding Experience:** Let users choose themes and features based on mood, hobbies, or goals (e.g. "Focus Mode," "Unwind," "Deep Dive"). * **Integrated Calm AI Assistant (ChatGPT-based):** An optional sidebar assistant that provides calm, short answers to questions, summarizes pages, or offers wellness tips — never overwhelming or pushy. * **Guided Wellness Tools:** Quick-access stretches, meditations, and breathing sessions — inspired by Opera Air’s “Take a Break” sidebar. * **Built-in VPN Option:** To complement Firefox’s privacy tools, a free VPN could enhance security and peace of mind. * **Community Feedback Integration:** Allow users to share how they browse mindfully and suggest features or new calming themes. --- **🎯 Objective:** Firefox Mint isn’t just a visual reskin — it’s a *mindset*. It asks: *What if your browser helped you feel better, not just get things done?* With Mozilla's existing foundation, especially Firefox Focus, this idea could be realized by forking or adapting current builds. Firefox Mint offers a unique opportunity for Mozilla to lead a **calm tech** movement — a browser that respects both your privacy *and* your peace of mind. --- **🔗 To Mozilla:** Thank you for supporting open, user-focused design. I hope this concept helps inspire something great. ---
