Learn how to install and manage both public and private plugins in your Amplication resources to extend functionality and maintain organizational standards.
Amplication offers a growing catalog of public plugins built by Amplication and the community, ready to install in a few clicks. Plus, your platform team can create private plugins tailored to your organization’s specific needs and internal standards.
Amplication supports two types of plugins, giving you flexibility and control:
Public Plugins are community-developed and Amplication-maintained plugins, available to all users. They cover a wide range of common backend functionalities and are a great way to quickly extend your service. Think of them as the “app store” for your backend. They are open-source, so you can always inspect the code and understand exactly what they do.
With public plugins, you can effortlessly add features like:
Public catalog plugins are only available when using Amplication standards with the Node.js or .NET blueprints. For a full list of publicly available plugins, see Amplication’s Plugin repo on GitHub.
Private Plugins let your platform team can develop custom plugins to encapsulate your organization’s unique requirements, enforce internal standards, and provide custom functionality. This lets platform teams “pave the golden path” for developers, providing standardized building blocks.
