Assessing Your Safari Web Extension’s Browser Compatibility

Note:

Safari web extensions are implemented as macOS app extensions to provide a safe and secure distribution and usage model. You must use Xcode to package your extensions for testing in Safari, and you must be a member of the Apple Developer Program to distribute them through the App Store. For more information, see Apple Developer Program.


Reasons not to.

The cost is $99 USD per membership year to distribute on the Apple platform.
You must use Xcode to package your extensions for testing in Safari.
