Of course, you need to go to the Mozilla website. They have a section for developers. Here's the link: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/developers/.
One of these days, I'll also try to develop a Firefox add-on myself. Like you, I'm curious as to how I can develop add-ons for the Firefox browser. Anyway, there must some forum where Firefox developers congregate. And if so, surely we can access that forum from mozilla.org.

Thanks for the vote. Anyway, I browsed a few of the projects at Mozilla and they got some pretty cool stuff going on there. Hopefully, they get deployed soon because I can't wait to try them out.

You can visit from their site on mozilla.org where there are a lot of add-ons to be downloaded. I have not tried downloading video downloader and audio downloader from mozilla site but I have video and audio downloader that came from another freeware sites. I learned that searching from youtube.
