What plugins can I install?

The Plugins Marketplace lets you install or manage:

UXP plugins such as Slack for Photoshop, and Trello for Photoshop.
Classic CEP Extension Panels, previously Add-ons (ZXP), also available through Adobe Exchange

Plug-ins available outside of the Plugin Marketplace:

Traditional plug-ins created by third-parties
Optional file format plug-ins

Are "plugins" different from "plug-ins"?

These new plugins are built using a modern extensibility platform granting plugin developers many benefits and will be managed using the Plugin Marketplace. Previously, legacy plug-ins and extension panels for Photoshop have been created using various technologies like CEP, and going forward, plugin developers can work to migrate their plugins to the new model.
