Using Mozilla code in other projects

There are several ways you can use Mozilla code in your own project.

Mozilla provides a development platform for desktop applications, called XUL, atop which you can build applications.
Various components of the platform, such as the SpiderMonkey JavaScript engine, can be used in your own projects without the rest of the platform.
There are also modules that aren't used in Firefox but are available for use by other applications; an example of this is Rhino, the JavaScript engine written in Java.
You can embed Gecko, the layout engine used by Firefox to process web pages, as a browser within your own application.
