# Extensibility features
Application extensibility is performed via the root `/src/assets/app.extensions.json`,
and any number of external plugins that are references of the main entry point.
The application also comes with the `/src/assets/plugins/` folder
already preconfigured to store external files.
You can create plugins that change, toggle, or extend the following areas:
- Navigation sidebar links and groups
- Context Menu
- Sidebar (aka Info Drawer)
- Toolbar entries
- buttons
- menu buttons
- separators
- Viewer actions
- "Open With" entries
- toolbar entries
- buttons
- "More actions" buttons
- Content metadata presets (used on `Properties` tab)
- Search
- Custom icons
- File list column layout
- files
- libraries
- favoriteLibraries
- shared
- recent
- favorites
- trashcan
- searchLibraries
Extensions can also:
- Overwrite or disable extension points of the main application or other plugins
- Change rules, actions or any visual element
- Register new application routes based on empty pages or layouts
- Register new rule evaluators, components, guards
