#Waterfox 27.0.2 code

UXP is an actively maintained fork with a historical fork point of the Mozilla code at Firefox 52 ESR with significant modifications to be a codebase for updated web technology support and creating any number of XUL-based applications. In 2017, the team behind Pale Moon began the Unified XUL Platform (UXP) project. Add-on support remained almost entirely unchanged, with a slight reduction of Jetpack compatibility. Pale Moon 27 (codenamed Tycho) was a major re-fork of the core browser code to Firefox 38 Extended Support Release, which added HTTP/2, DirectX 11, MSE/DASH, and JavaScript ES6 capabilities. Starting with version 25, Pale Moon uses a completely independent versioning scheme. Eventually the scope of the project grew, and version 24 became a true fork of Firefox 24 ESR. Straver's first official release of Pale Moon, in 2009, was a rebuild of Firefox 3.5.2 with tweaked compiler settings. Straver is the project founder and lead developer.

Pale Moon's source code is released under the Mozilla Public License 2.0 except for parts relating to branding. However, a contributed build for Linux is available that supports some older processors. The official releases do not support older processors without the SSE2 instruction set. The final version for Snow Leopard is the foundation for the Arctic Fox web browser. The end of XP support was quickly followed by Pale Moon getting at least two forks of its own, both of which take the most recent Pale Moon code and recompile it for XP New Moon by roytam1, and Mypal by Feodor2.
