# 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.

<Info>
  If you're looking to enable vector extensions, you should instead consider
  using the native [libSQL vector datatype](/features/ai-and-embeddings).
