Firefox Quantum: Developer edition

Posted on by

It’s very easy to install fresh version of Firefox Quantum, but i stucked on installing Developer Edition. There was coinces:

  • to download archives and cheat with shortcuts, because browser don’t want to open links after click in terminal or other applications
  • install from PPA gives not-developer edition

After trying all scenarios, i picked one optimal way to install Firefox Quantum Developer Edition in Ubuntu 16.
