Addons
Purpose
Addons explains how admins use installed feature areas without needing developer details.
Addons Manager
Addons Manager is where admins review installed addons and open their management screens. Depending on permissions, it may also support enable, disable, install, uninstall, or status workflows.
Extenders
Extenders are installed feature modules that extend the CMS. Use Extenders Catalog to find and open extender management screens.
Apps
Apps are frontend application-style features. Apps Catalog helps admins see available app surfaces and manage them at an operator level.
Widgets
Widgets are dashboard-ready information blocks. Widgets Catalog manages widget availability, placement, assignment, and ordering rules. Dashboard displays them; Widgets manages them.
Garage
Garage is for parked or in-progress addon work, depending on the current build. Treat it as a controlled place, not a junk drawer with better lighting.
System Tools
System Tools may affect more than one part of the site. Use them deliberately and verify results afterward.
What this page does not cover
This page does not explain contracts, manifests, schema ownership, or lifecycle authority. Those belong in the Developer lane.
