## Grill extensions

Light Grill can be extended with new functionality via custom extensions.

Each extension should have:
- A specific usecase, for example: share NFTs in chat or uploade images to IPFS, etc.
- A JSON schema that will extend IPFS content of the chat message. See `ExtensionWidget` class in [types.tsx](/components/Extensions/types.tsx).
- An input modal for the asking data from users.
- A render function for your extension widget.

Once you created your extension, add it to the Extension Registry of Light Grill [here](/components/Extensions/registry.tsx).

## Environment variables 🌎

Below is the list of environment variables that you can use to customize your chat, based upon your needs and the needs of your community.
