+### extendExpressApp
+
+This lets you modify the express app that Keystone creates _before_ the Apollo Server and Admin UI Middleware are added to it (but after the `cors` and `healthcheck` options are applied).
+
+For example, you could add your own request logging middleware:
+
+```ts
+export default config({
+  server: {
+    extendExpressApp: (app) => {
+      app.use((req, res, next) => {
+        console.log('A request!');
+        next();
+      });
+    },
+  },
+});
+```
+
+Or add a custom route handler:
+
+```ts
+export default config({
+  server: {
+    extendExpressApp: (app) => {
+      app.get('/_version', (req, res) => {
+        res.send('v6.0.0-rc.2');
+      });
+    },
+  },
+});
+```
