SQLite Extensions
SQLite Extensions
Learn how to use SQLite extensions with Turso.
Turso comes loaded with extensions that provide additional functionality to SQLite. Some plans will have more extensions preloaded.
If you’re looking to enable vector extensions, you should instead consider using the native libSQL vector datatype.
