= The Plugin Framework =
{{man note|This page lists plug-ins packaged with each release of Gramps... the "built-insbuiltins".|There are also dozens of plug-ins that are [[Third-party Addons|Third-party Addons]], written by users and developers to work only with Gramps version 5.2.<br /><br />All plugins (whether built-in builtin or addon) can be enabled, hidden or disabled with the [[Gramps_5.2_Wiki_Manual_-_Plugin_Manager|Plugin Manager]] or the [[Addon:Plugin_ManagerV2|Plugin Manager Enhanced version2]].}}
Gramps comes with a [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Gramplets|core set of plugins]] which provide the primary features in a framework that allows expansion.
From Gramps [[Gramps_{{Version manual}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Settings#General|Preferences]], you can check for available extra (or updated) addons and select which to download. Then, they will be retrieved from the internet from the Gramps-Project file server and installed locally on your computer.
Once installed, an addon is found in the same place as a built-in builtin feature of the same [[Addon_list_legend#Type|Type]]. That is, Tool addons become new menu items on the Tools menu... while addon Gramplets become new choices in the appropriate Category View sidebar, bottombar or Dashboard options.
Installed addons can be enabled or disabled via the [[Gramps_{{Version manual}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Plugin_Manager|Plugin Manager]].
= Plugin List =
Addons are listed inside of Gramps through the interface described above. The Plug-in Manager list includes the [[Gramps_{{man version}}_Wiki_Manual_-_Gramplets#Built-in_Gramplet_List|built-in builtin Gramplets]] as well as any downloaded third party addons... such as those in the following list.
