Answer
The Builder pattern can be extended to support different configurations by using subclassing or separate builders.
For example, in an e-commerce system, you might have different types of `ShippingOption` objects like standard, express, or overnight. By using specific builder subclasses for each option, you can tailor the construction process to the specific needs and parameters of each variant.
