+Adapting pyscopg to your program
+--------------------------------
+
+The above :ref:`pattern of use <usage>` only shows the default behaviour of
+the adapter. Psycopg can be customised in several way, to allow the smoothest
+integration between your Python program and your PostgreSQL database:
+
+- If your program is concurrent and based on `asyncio` instead of on
+  threads/processes, you can use :ref:`async connections and cursors <async>`.
+
+- If you want to customise the objects that the cursor returns, instead of
+  receiving tuples, you can specify your :ref:`row factories <row-factories>`.
+
+- If you want to customise how Python values and PostgreSQL types are mapped
+  into each other, beside the :ref:`basic type mapping <types-adaptation>`,
+  you can :ref:`configure your types <adaptation>`.
