SDK Plugins are used to augment traditional Destination and Source components ([Subscriptions](/docs/partners/subscriptions/) and [Streams](/docs/partners/streams/)) by shipping code to the End User's Device. You can use this mechanism to enable customers to dynamically include your libraries or SDKs and to wire up the Segment SDK to invoke them directly when your plugin is enabled. This pattern is most commonly used to build what we call "Device-mode Destinations".

Segment's Client SDKs (analytics.js, analytics-ios, and analytics-android) serve as "microcosms" of the Segment Customer Data Infrastructure runtime — they enable the dynamic orchestration of event collection, cleaning and validation, transforming, and delivery to collection endpoints right from inside the SDK.

SDK Plugins are an appropriate component for your App if your source or destination requires client-side side effects, such as collecting ambient data in the client (Heatmapping, Error & Performance Monitoring tools), relying on device-native context such as third party cookies (Advertising pixels), or needs to actively modify the Client UI (e.g. A/B testing, Push Notification, In-App Messaging and LiveChat).
