Une nouvelle version stable du navigateur Firefox vient de sortir. Pour cette version 56.0, peu de changements car les plus grosses modifications sont à attendre pour la version 57.0. En effet, Firefox 56.0 est la dernière version à supporter les extensions classiques avant leur désactivation et leur remplacement par les WebExtensions dans la prochaine version.
On notera tout de même la refonte des Options/Préférences du navigateur et l'inclusion de Firefox Screenshots, un outil permettant la capture d'une page ou d'une portion de celle-ci avant une sauvegarde locale ou sur le Cloud de Mozilla.
Voici la liste complète des modifications par rapport à la version précédente :
