XULRunner Builds

If you want to play with XULRunner, you can start using the Mozilla 1.8-based nightly builds. They are available for Linux/x86, Win32 and MacOS X.

XULRunner is the light-weight, stand-alone run-time for Mozilla-based applications. It is Mozilla without the browser.

As such, it can feature the whole range of Mozilla technologies, including extensions such as SQL support for MySQL/PostgreSQL/SQLite etc.

With XULRunner, you can make your XUL-application look like another desktop program. In addition to that, XULRunner does not contain the overhead of a slicky Firefox browser. You probably won't miss the bookmark feature in a XUL application.
