Types of XE Extensions
The biggest advantage of XE is that XE enables you to operate websites more conveniently by
adding diverse features. This section describes the extensions of XE. For information on how
to install each extension, see "How to Install Extensions."
Module
A module in XE is a program. Multiple modules can be combined into a bigger module, and
each module can operate independently. In short, modules are programs that are additionally
installed to implement specific features on websites.
Bulletin board, CafeXE and Textyle can be considered the representative modules provided in
XE.
Figure 4-1 Modules
Addon
A small program that interrupts between the operations of modules and performs its own
operations. In addition to modules, addons execute their own features by themselves.
However, addons are different from modules in that they do not provide the execution results
to outside.
Default counter and mobile XE are examples of the representative Addons provided by XE.
