I did not like installing apps from firefox add-ons but loved installing applications from firefox marketplace when it was there back then. It made me feel productive as it was the app store of an OS ,which was also there back then. But why was it discontinued? If there is any reason, please reply and If possible, please try recreating it. Here are the new firefox marketplace icons I suggest which I got from the web archive. Each icon is larger than the previous one. And if possible, please work on firefox OS too.

The archived https://wiki.mozilla.org/Marketplace may answer a number of things that happened and why the Firefox Marketplace was shut down.

Firefox OS was discontinued in 2016 with last update back in 2015, though there has been a few forks or based on Firefox OS. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firefox_OS#Forks

Mozilla has no plans or reasons to work on either Firefox Marketplace or Firefox OS again as they have more worthwhile products to work on.

So is it possible we can build the firefox marketplace and firefox OS by ourselves back again ?

Is it possible to compile them from any remaining sources or the internet archive ? https://web.archive.org
