 ## Overview
 
-Kedro uses [`setuptools`](https://setuptools.readthedocs.io/en/latest/setuptools.html), which is a collection of enhancements to the Python `distutils` to allow developers to build and distribute Python packages. Kedro uses various entry points in [`pkg_resources`](https://setuptools.readthedocs.io/en/latest/setuptools.html) to provide plugin functionality.
+Kedro's extension mechanism is built on [`pluggy`](https://pluggy.readthedocs.io/), a solid plugin management library that was created for the [pytest](https://docs.pytest.org/) ecosystem. `pluggy` relies on [entry points](https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/specifications/entry-points/), a Python mechanism for packages to provide components that can be discovered by other packages using [`importlib.metadata`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/importlib.metadata.html#entry-points).
