> For those using Kuzu currently, prior Kuzu releases will continue to be usable in the same way without modifications to your code.

> If you are also using extensions, moving forward you have two options:
9+
> 1. we have a new release 0.11.3 that bundles many (but not all) of the extensions, so you can migrate to 0.11.3; or
10+
> 2. you can follow the [instructions here](http://kuzudb.github.io/docs/extensions/#host-your-own-extension-server) to run a local extension server.

## Build from Source
44+
## Extensions
45+
Kuzu has an extension framework that users can dynamically load the functionality you need at runtime.
46+
We've developed a list of [official extensions](https://kuzudb.github.io/docs/extensions/#available-extensions) that you can use to extend Kuzu's functionality.
5747

58-
You can build from source using the instructions provided in the [developer guide](https://docs.kuzudb.com/developer-guide).
48+
Kuzu requires you to install the extension before loading and using it.
49+
Note that Kuzu no longer provides the official extension server, where you can directly install any official extensions.

52+
You do not need to manually INSTALL these extensions.

For Kuzu versions before v0.11.3, or to install extensions that haven't been pre-installed, you have to set up a local extension server.
55+
The instructions of setting up a local extension server can be found below.
56+
57+
### Host your own extension server
58+
59+
The extension server is based on NGINX and is hosted on [GitHub](https://ghcr.io/kuzudb/extension-repo). You can pull the Docker image and run it in your environment:
