CHAPTER 7
Chapter 7: Extension Development
TYPO3 is a
framework for web applications. This framework can be expanded,
adjusted, or even completely changed, on the basis of extensions. At its
core, TYPO3 is a web-based database management system. This can be seen,
for example, by the fact that the CMS is implemented as an extension,
that is, it is an application of TYPO3. This separation between core and
application reduces complexity and makes it easier to continue
developing the system. This is made possible by a defined and structured
Extension API. In addition, each extension has its own namespace. Taken
together, this prevents conflicts and makes it possible to extend TYPO3
in almost every direction.
