+# BitShares Plugins
+
+The bitshares plugins are a collection of tools that brings new functionality without the need of modifications in the consensus and more sensitive areas of the bitshares-core.
+
+The main source of I/O of the bitshares blockchain is the API. Plugins are a more powerful alternative to build more complex developments for when the current API is not enough.
+
+Plugins are optional to run by node operator according to their needs. However, all plugins here will be compiled. There are plans for optional build of plugins at: [Issue 533](https://github.com/bitshares/bitshares-core/issues/533)
