Project Birdbox

A quick-start kit for making on-brand, CMS-backed microsites at Mozilla

What is Birdbox?

Birdbox is a kit that helps Mozilla developers quickly build websites with the Mozilla brand look and feel, and then give control of the site content to non-developers.

It was developed by the Marketing Engineering And Operations (MEAO) team to save everyone time and put more control over content into the hands of the relevant project’s team.

How do we accomplish this?

Best-in-class CMS

Birdbox wraps the excellent open-source Wagtail CMS. Of course, our code is open, too

Consistent design

All components are based closely on our in-house design system: Mozilla Protocol, so sites are always on-brand.

Repeatable infra

Birdbox uses pre-vetted infrastructure-as-code templates to stand up new new sites quickly
