Designing bookmark sync… again

For the second time, I'm building an implementation of bookmark sync on a new platform. The last one, in early 2012, was Firefox for Android. That turned out relatively well, considering the circumstances, but it didn't go far enough in avoiding some ancient errors baked into the desktop codebase.

For Firefox on iOS we have a new set of platform constraints and a strong desire to avoid some of the known pitfalls. This post sets out some of the considerations. A future post will set out the proposed solution.

Our goal: keep a tree of bookmarks in sync across multiple devices.

Syncs occur to and from a server. Devices don't communicate directly.
