Which version of FrontTailor is current?

1.0.0 of 10 November 2026, the first stable release. The 0.1.0 beta of 9 November 2026 had no licence check yet.

What changes with FrontTailor 1.0.0?

Every release contains a ZIP, a signed CRX and a CycloneDX SBOM.
A Firefox build for Firefox 140 and later is built from the same sources; the submission to Firefox Add-ons is still pending (Firefox).
