# Plugins
|
|
|
|
Vagrant comes with many great features out of the box to get your environments up
|
|
and running. Sometimes, however, you want to change the way Vagrant does something
|
|
or add additional functionality to Vagrant. This can be done via Vagrant
|
|
_plugins_.
|
|
|
|
Plugins are powerful, first-class citizens that extend Vagrant using a
|
|
well-documented, stable API that can withstand major version upgrades.
|
|
|
|
In fact, most of the core of Vagrant is [implemented using plugins](https://github.com/mitchellh/vagrant/tree/master/plugins).
|
|
Since Vagrant [dogfoods](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eating_your_own_dog_food) its own
|
|
plugin API, you can be confident that the interface is stable and well supported.

|
|
about how to use and build your own plugins.
