[Fully customizable and extensible.](https://github.com/paragonie/airship-docs/blob/master/en-us/WHY.md#5-our-gear-system-allows-the-framework-to-be-extended)Our `Gears` system allows extensions to easily restructure and/or replace entire Airship features without causing conflicts with our secure automatic updating process.
