Zotero on DragonFly

Hello!

If there is anyone else on DragonFly using Zotero with firefox-esr 52, it seems as though on May 8th firefox-esr 52 becomes depricated in favor of firefox-esr 60. The new versions of Firefox beginning with 57 break compatibility with a number of useful plugins.

The Zotero developers have decided to switch to a standalone version that runs on Linux but doesn't seem to have been ported to *BSD (and likely won't be).

There was some discussion started by a FreeBSD user on the Zotero forums:
https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/64450/freebsd-libreoffice-firefox-zotero-java-error

My question is has anyone tinkered with the standalone code and found it buildable/usable on DragonFly? If not what are people planning to use for citation manager? Zotero is incredibly useful and user friendly.
