"If you built something, and nobody knows about it, why did you bother?"

The following is a list of the various Mozilla Projects. Projects listed here are "main" projects, meaning they're not a support library or project for an already listed project. In addition, each project listed was used in at least one user facing product or has been used by at least one external party. Inclusions for missing qualified projects is heartily encouraged.

This list is manually edited, so it is current as of the last edit date.
