Since 2019, the Firefox UI is made using Web Components: https://briangrinstead.com/blog/firefox-webcomponents/

I heard that firefox is using their own GUI based off of XML and its called XUL. At least that's what it sounds like if your read their articles on XUL.

Firefox uses a number of GUI toolkits, including the native Windows one, as well as GTK+ for X platforms. Sadly, there is no official support for Qt.
