08/12/2024, 12:13 PMwhat you want is possible by updating the extension js file and uploading

08/12/2024, 12:24 PMActually, I want to know how this works
1. I have SCA and I did setup of SCA developer too,
2. If I want to implement the extensions, then I also need to setup extension manager for my SCA wevstore?
3. OR, I can use SCA developer tool to deploy the extension as well? is this something possible?
4. I am fine with using of extension manager tool, However Just wanted to understand how this works in SCA

08/12/2024, 12:31 PMThe extension manager is required for extensions. This is because all the files that contain the JavaScript, CSS, etc, for the extension are compiled when you activate them.
If you have SCA, then you don't need to use extensions. However, you will probably be making a bad architectural choice that will impact maintenance and upgrades later down the line. This is one of the primary reasons why we introduced extensions.
Steve Goldberg
08/12/2024, 12:31 PMOf course, if your customisation doesn't work in an extension, then you can extend the core code in your bundle, but the more you have there, the more you will have to migrate when you upgrade.
Steve Goldberg
08/12/2024, 12:32 PMYou can extend core code in extensions too, don't forget. We don't recommend it for SuiteCommerce because we automatically update the bundle code for SC sites. For SCA, the code stays static, so it is permissible.
