When I'm looking for information on a certain JS or CSS framework, I'm typing in (for example) d3.js or skeleton.css in Firefox. Firefox starts treating it like a domain name, and goes to www.d3.js.

How can I make Firefox ignore certain extensions as top-level domain names and instead, query my search engine?

I'm sure you've found an answer to this by now but the technique I use is to create a shortcut to the search engine in the Preferences > Privacy & Security > One-Click Search Engines section, e.g.

enter image description here

Anything I know Firefox may use as a domain I simply prepend with dd, e.g. dd d3.js.
