Description: The types of extensions in content management systems (CMS) are categories that define the specific functionality and behavior of extensions within various CMS platforms. Each type of extension serves a particular purpose, allowing developers and website administrators to effectively customize and extend the capabilities of the CMS. These types include, among others, modules, components, plugins, and templates, each designed to meet different needs and functions. For example, modules are content blocks that can be placed in various positions within a template, while components are more complex applications that can manage specific tasks. Plugins, on the other hand, are small code snippets that allow adding additional functionalities to existing components and modules. This modular structure not only facilitates site customization but also promotes code reuse and collaboration among developers, contributing to the popularity and versatility of CMS platforms as web development tools.
