I always seem to have a hard time starting a new Firefox extension. Can anyone recommend a good extension skeleton, scaffold, or code generator? Ideally one that follows all the best practices for FF extensions?
4. Click the Extensions folder to highlight it, right-click and click "Copy." Navigate up one level to Profiles, and then choose your current profile directory. Right-click and select "Paste" to recover your extensions by copying them from your old Firefox profile.
Look in the Customize Box. If they are there, just click on them and shift to the toolbar. [Access Customize by right clicking on toolbar space or in the Three Horizontal Bar Menu.] Also look in this 3 bar Menu for Add-ons > Extensions to see if they are installed and see if they need to be enabled/activated.
Find and add extensions in Firefox Open Firefox. In the window's upper-right corner, click the Open Applications Menu icon. In the drop-down menu, select Add-ons and themes. On the left side of the screen, click Extensions.
In Firefox: Open the about:debugging page, click the This Firefox option, click the Load Temporary Add-on button, then select any file in your extension's directory. The extension now installs, and remains installed until you restart Firefox.

Of course googling for "firefox extension generator" is where I found it ;)
Look up this eclipse plugin:
