This article summarizes the current possibilities of the framework extension, provides a list of customizations that are not achievable now but are planned to be enabled soon, as well as a list of customizations that are not (and will not be) possible at all.
- Extending an entity
- The administration can be extended by:
- Adding a new administration page along with the side menu and breadcrumbs
- Extending particular forms without the need of the template overriding
- Customizing database migrations
- adding a new migration as well as skipping and reordering the existing ones
- Configuring the smoke tests (see
RouteConfigCustomizationclass)- Note: This is now achievable as the configuration class is located in the open box project-base. However, that makes the upgrading of the component harder so the configuration is planned to be re-worked.

- Extending the application using standard Symfony techniques
- e.g. overriding Twig templates, routes, services, ...
- Adding a new advert position to be used in the administration section Marketing > Advertising system
