Such packages get installed via `npm` or `mvn`, and hence their content will reside under `node_modules` folders, or Maven `target` folders. As long as they also provide models through `.cds` sources, their data will be found and loaded. | ||

Some tweaks to language specifics, a couple of additions and clarifications, and the removal of what seems to be an accidental repeat of a paragraph on the "in the neighbourhood" concept.
