Hi everyone, 

I'm new to this awesome tool, ESLint. I have a question which I keeping 
search for a while but did't get an answer yet.

Wish you guys could help to explain what is the difference between *plugins* 
and *extending configuration*? From the 
docs http://eslint.org/docs/user-guide/configuring, I feed both of them has 
the same functionality which is extends the current rules as well as other 
configuration like env, global. 

At first I thought extending configuration is like class inheritance in 
Java, which give user a base of configuration and then user can add 1+ 
plugins to add more rules or other config. But later, I found user can also 
extending multiple configurations, this make me feel that plugin and 
extending configuration are totally overlapped. So that's say user can just 
extending configuration instead of using any plugins.

Thanks for your help.
