Firefox for Mac lies within Internet & Network Tools, more precisely Browsers. The most recent setup file that can be downloaded is 73 MB in size. The actual developer of this free software for Mac is Mozilla. I am having tremendous success with Firefox Portable for Windows. However, I am new with Application Development on MAC OS, and I want to accomplish the same success using Firefox Portable for MAC OS X. My questions are: 1.) How was FirefoxPortable.app built, compiled, and generated? 2.) Is there a FirefoxPortable.nsi version for Firefox Portable for MAC?
Firefox For Mac Os Lion
Mozilla Firefox is a graphical web browser developed by the Mozilla Corporation and a large community of external contributors. Firefox started as a fork of the Navigator browser component of the Mozilla Application Suite. Firefox has replaced the Mozilla Suite as the flagship product of the Mozilla project, under the direction of the Mozilla Foundation.
To display web pages, Firefox uses the Gecko layout engine, which implements most current web standards in addition to several features which are intended to anticipate likely additions to the standards. Latest Firefox features include tabbed browsing, spell checking, incremental find, live bookmarking, a download manager, private browsing, location-aware browsing (also known as 'geolocation') based exclusively on a Google service and an integrated search system that uses Google by default in most localizations. Functions can be added through add-ons, created by third-party developers, of which there is a wide selection, a feature that has attracted many of Firefox's users. Mozilla Firefox is a cross-platform browser, providing support for various versions of Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux.

Updates : Firefox for Mac Updates
On June 30th, macOS 10.9, 10.10 and 10.11 users will automatically be moved to the Firefox Extended Support Release (ESR).
While Apple doesn’t have an official policy governing security updates for older macOS releases, their ongoing practice has been to support the most recent three releases (i.e. version N, N-1, and N-2). The last security update applicable to macOS 10.11 was made available nearly 2 years ago in July 2018 (https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201222). Unsupported operating systems receive no security updates, have known exploits, and can be dangerous to use, which makes it difficult and less than optimal to maintain Firefox for those versions.
Users do not need to take additional action to receive those updates. On June 30th, these macOS users will automatically be moved to the ESR channel through application update.

In the meantime, we strongly encourage our users to upgrade to mac OS X 10.12 or higher to benefit from the security and privacy updates.
