# Create extension-only discount apps with Admin UI extensions

As of today discount apps can use Admin UI extensions to embed discount configuration UI directly into the discount details page.

Admin UI extensions are hosted by Shopify, which means you no longer need to build and maintain your own web infrastructure to host the UI that configures your discount function's metafields.

Learn more by following this [tutorial on building a discount UI with UI extensions](https://shopify.dev/docs/apps/build/discounts/build-ui-extension?extension=javascript) and browse the available [Admin UI components here](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-extensions/unstable/components).
