    I realize this is probobly a pretty green question -  I just started toying around with EE.

    What is the difference between Modules, Plugins & Extensions?

    Look at that! Perfect explanation, thanks Mark.

    With an extension, could you add an additional custom field group? I would like to integrate a file picker into the edit screens.
