# Using extensions
Extensions are a more convenient form of user scripts.
Extensions all exist in their own subdirectory inside the `extensions` directory. You can use git to install an extension like this:
```
git clone https://github.com/AUTOMATIC1111/stable-diffusion-webui-aesthetic-gradients extensions/aesthetic-gradients
```
This installs an extension from `https://github.com/AUTOMATIC1111/stable-diffusion-webui-aesthetic-gradients` into the `extensions/aesthetic-gradients` directory.
# Developing extensions
Web ui interacts with installed extensions in the following way:
- extension's scripts in the `scripts` directory are executed as if they were just usual user scripts, except:
- `sys.path` is extended to include the extension directory, so you can import anything in it without worrying
- you can use `scripts.basedir()` to get the current extension's directory (since user can name it anything he wants)
- extension's javascript files in the `javascript` directory are added to the page
- extension's `style.css` file is added to the page
