+ <span class="productname">PostgreSQL</span> is designed to be easily extensible. For
+ this reason, extensions loaded into the database can function
+ just like features that are built in. The
+ <code class="filename">contrib/</code> directory shipped with the source code
+ contains several extensions, which are described in
+ <a class="xref" href="contrib.html" title="Appendix F. Additional Supplied Modules">Appendix F</a>. Other extensions are developed
+ independently, like <span class="application"><a class="ulink" href="https://postgis.net/" target="_top">PostGIS</a></span>. Even
+ <span class="productname">PostgreSQL</span> replication solutions can be developed
+ externally. For example, <span class="application"> <a class="ulink" href="https://www.slony.info" target="_top">Slony-I</a></span> is a popular
+ primary/standby replication solution that is developed independently
+ from the core project.
