@rohitmit07 thank you for the question, it ultimately depends on your use-case:

1. if you'd like to simply add the plugin for yourself then you can simply download and save the extension under the plugins folder which is referenced when starting the application:

theia/examples/browser/package.json

Line 61 in ecfe920

"start": "theia start --plugins=local-dir:../../plugins",

2. if you'd like the plugin to be available to your users through the extensions view then a version will need to be added to the open-source marketplace open-vsx so it can be fetched and installed. If it is not available in the open-vsx then you can either request to add it or publish it yourself.

3. if you'd like the plugin to be available by default for your application (builtin) then you need to make sure that step 2 is completed, and the plugin is referenced in your application's package.json like so:

theia/package.json

Lines 85 to 87 in ecfe920

	"theiaPlugins": {
	"vscode-builtin-bat": "https://open-vsx.org/api/vscode/bat/1.44.2/file/vscode.bat-1.44.2.vsix",
	"vscode-builtin-clojure": "https://open-vsx.org/api/vscode/clojure/1.44.2/file/vscode.clojure-1.44.2.vsix",

When using the script yarn download:plugins it will fetch and download all plugins (by their URL) and place them under a plugins folder which is referenced when the application is started.
