Safari Extensions add new features to Apple's default web browser, Safari.
In Safari, the menu command Safari > Safari Extensions takes you to https://extensions.apple.com/
Scroll or use Command-F to find things on the page. You can install directly from that page and do not even have to restart Safari. Some are Shareware i.e. invite you to make a donation.
AdBlock is a popular piece of shareware.
Click2Flash is a very useful tool to keep Flash off unless you need it. (It also tries to encourage web sites to load H.264 videos instead.)
