Gatsby plugins are Node.js packages that hook into Gatsby's build and runtime. Create plugins for custom data sourcing (Shopify, CMS, APIs), image optimization, code generation, or build analysis. Senior plugin developers earn $110-160k because they unblock entire teams and reduce build times. Common use case: source plugin for proprietary CMS feeding 1000+ pages. Mastery: 4-6 weeks.
Gatsby plugins are reusable Node.js packages that extend Gatsby's build and runtime. They hook into Gatsby's lifecycle (onCreateNode, onCreatePage, onBuild, etc.), modify the GraphQL schema, fetch/transform data, and optimize assets. Each plugin solves one problem: sourcing data from Shopify, transforming markdown to HTML, optimizing images, etc. Gatsby's plugin ecosystem lets developers focus on features instead of build infrastructure. 300+ official plugins (gatsby-source-shopify, gatsby-plugin-image, gatsby-source-filesystem) cover common use cases. Custom plugins handle proprietary needs.
