firefox-remote
A high-level API for controlling Firefox over its Marionette protocol.
This crate started as an experiment to see how easy it would be to control firefox directly without using a webdriver proxy (e.g. geckodriver). Turns out it is quite straightforward, so here we are :)
Protocol coverage
This isn't a super popular protocol to implement, and the docs are not kept up to date. So the best reference for the supported operations is the source code.
