# Apps
|
|
|
|
App plugins is a new kind of grafana plugin that can bundle datasource and panel plugins within one package. It also enable the plugin author to create custom pages within grafana. The custom pages enables the plugin author to include things like documentation, sign up forms or controlling other services using HTTP requests.
|
|
|
|
Datasource and panel plugins will show up like normal plugins. The app pages will be available in the main menu.
