I want to develop Firefox addons. But I don't know how to set up environment to build xpi-files in Windows 8, and I absolutely don't know how to start. I'm interested in video-tutorials (like Udemy/Lynda/Pluralsight) as it is much easier for beginners to start. I believe it's one of the best ways to learn any new area as you listen to expert, watch and repeat its actions step-by-step. Do you know where I can find such video courses?
