You can build a Safari extension as an app extension bundled with an app, 
meaning you can write your extension in Swift or Objective-C (and JavaScript).

I encourage anyone who is interested to learn more at 
https://developer.apple.com/library/content/documentation/NetworkingInternetWeb/Conceptual/SafariAppExtension_PG/index.html
 
<https://developer.apple.com/library/content/documentation/NetworkingInternetWeb/Conceptual/SafariAppExtension_PG/index.html>
 and watch the “Extending your App with Safari App Extensions” session from 
WWDC 2016 (https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2016/214/ 
<https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2016/214/>).

If you find that the extension API doesn’t meet your needs, or something isn’t 
behaving as expected, please file a bug report at https://bugreport.apple.com
