### When to put addons in this plugin

[](#when-to-put-addons-in-this-plugin)

The addons in this plugin aim to decouple the IdeHelper and other plugins. The dependency even as require-dev can sometimes not be desired. So whenever you want to have the dependency not part of it, you can ask to put things here or make your own addon plugin of sorts.
