Plugins

Add powerful customization to the server, desktop, and web apps without contributing to the core codebase. Build your own full featured services (written in Go) or browse the plugin directory.

Webhooks

Post to channels or listen for new messages with incoming & outgoing webhooks. Slack-compatible —not ‘Slack-limited’— just copy & paste the URL and the integration will work.
