Mattermost supports plugins that offer powerful features for extending and deeply integrating with both the Server and Web/Desktop Apps.

Features
Customize user interfaces
Write a Web App plugin to add to the channel header, sidebars, main menu, and more. Register your plugin against a post type to render custom posts or wire up a root component to build an entirely new experience. All this is possible without having to fork the source code and rebase on every Mattermost release.
Launch tightly-integrated services
Launch and manage Server plugins as services from your Mattermost server over RPC. Handle events via real-time hooks and invoke Mattermost server methods directly using a dedicated plugin API.
Extend the Mattermost REST API
Extend the Mattermost REST API with custom endpoints for use by Web App plugins or third-party services. Custom endpoints have access to all the features of the standard Mattermost REST API, including personal access tokens and OAuth 2.0.
See the [Mattermost Server SDK Reference](/developers/integrate/reference/server/server-reference) and [Mattermost Client UI SDK Reference](/developers/integrate/reference/webapp/webapp-reference) documentation for details on available server API endpoints and client methods.Simple development and installation
It's simple to set up a plugin development environment with the mattermost-plugin-starter-template. Just select "Use this template" when cloning the repository. Please see the developer setup and developer workflow pages for more information.
