What is a browser extension?

A browser extension is a small software program that integrates with your web browser to add new features or modify existing ones. Unlike standalone apps, extensions work within your browser, adding functionality and customization options specifically tailored to your browsing habits. It's like having a toolbox that works with your browser, providing you with tools to use while browsing and interacting with sites you visit.

Extensions can be found in various web browsers such as Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Brave, and Microsoft Edge. They are generally easy to install and can be accessed through the browser's extension store. After installing, they appear as icons or buttons on your browser's interface, allowing you to access their features by clicking on them.
