How to override OOTB component?

Hi,

I'm very new with AEM. I want to override journal component from /libs/social/journal/components/hbs/journal and comment component in my project.

I didn't get how to override it. Please provide me step by step solution or any good example related to override OOTB component.

And if possible explain me difference between extend, overlay, and override component.

Thank you in advance.

Then change the title of the component in the properties and then modify some app logic. Overlays
