F.A.Q

Will this buildpack always be updated? When was the last time this build-pack was built?

This buildpack will always have the latest version of Mozilla Firefox & Mozilla Geckodriver. This repository is set to update once a week automatically and will support the latest Heroku slugs and Mozilla Firefox + Geckodriver.

The /bin/compile will always have the last time it was checked for a version, on the top of the file.

#!/usr/bin/env bash
# bin/compile <build-dir> <cache-dir>
