The extension offers several layers of `Devicetree integration <Devicetree support overview_>`_, ranging from summarizing devicetree settings in a menu and providing devicetree language support in the editor, to the Devicetree Visual Editor, a GUI tool for editing devicetree files.

Like Kconfig fragment files, devicetree files can also be provided as overlays.

The devicetree overlay files use the :ref:`normalized board target name <app_boards_names>` and the file extension :file:`.overlay` (for example, ``nrf54h20dk/nrf54h20/cpuapp`` becomes :file:`nrf54h20dk_nrf54h20_cpuapp.overlay`).
