Extensions

Extensions are modular components that add to and customize NocoDB. They work like plugins. Extensions add features that are not in the core platform. Use them to adapt NocoDB to your requirements and workflows.

This section gives an overview of the Extensions framework. It shows how to install, manage and use extensions in your NocoDB base.

Extensions are developed with JavaScript and Vue.js. This gives a flexible way to add new features to your NocoDB instance. Development of custom extensions will be available soon. You will then be able to change NocoDB for your specific needs and workflows.

To show or hide the Extensions side panel, click the Extensions button in the top-right corner of the NocoDB interface.

  • You can add more than one instance of the same extension to a base.
