Firefox Sync permits synchronize plugins, tabs, bookmarks, favorites, history over many Firefox instances.

## Configuration

Once installed, the `domain.tld/path` site should display a page explaining how to configure it.
To use your personal Firefox sync server, you will need to configure your [Firefox](https://www.mozilla.org/fr/firefox/new/) web browser.

### Firefox desktop

1. In Firefox URL bar put: `about:config`.
2. Search for: `identity.sync.tokenserver.uri`.
3. Replace the URL by: https://mydomain.tld/path/token/1.0/sync/1.5
4. Create an account at Mozilla: https://accounts.firefox.com/signup

### Firefox mobile

With the last version of firefox mobile it's same than for desktop.

## Limitations with YunoHost

By default, a configured server will report authentication to the account server hosted by Mozilla at https://accounts.firefox.com. You will still need to authenticate to Mozilla, but your information will be stored on your host.
