# Welcome to Firefox Accounts

## This repository is a historic archive. See [mozilla/fxa](https://github.com/mozilla/fxa) for up to date information

Firefox Accounts is the authentication and authorization system for Mozilla
Services, providing access to services such as Firefox Sync, Pocket and
https://addons.mozilla.org.

This repository contains documentation for getting started with Firefox
Accounts development.  Most of the actual code for the service lives in
sub-repositories linked from the docs below.

## Using your Firefox Accounts

You can [create an account](https://accounts.firefox.com/signup) or
[sign in](https://accounts.firefox.com/signin) directly on https://accounts.firefox.com, but you almost certainly want to start by using an account-attached
service such as [Firefox Sync](https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/sync/).


## Integrating with Firefox Accounts

Developing a service that needs Firefox Accounts authentication?  Head on over to the [Firefox Accounts Portal](https://mozilla.github.io/application-services/docs/accounts/welcome.html) for a description of the system, how it works, and how to plug into it.
