+### Plugins
+Sometimes it's necessary to change the way `choo` itself works. For example to
+report whenever an action is triggered, handle errors globally or perist state
+somewhere. This is done through something called `plugins`. Plugins are objects
+that contain `hook` functions and are passed to `app.use()`:
+
+```js
+const log = require('choo-log')
+const choo = require('choo')
+const app = choo()
+
+app.use(log())
+
+const tree = app.start()
+document.body.appendChild(tree)
+```
+
+Generally people using `choo` shouldn't be too worried about the specifics of
+`plugins`, as the internal API is (unfortunatly by necessecity) quite complex.
+After all they're the most powerful way to modify a `choo` appliction. If you
+want to learn more about creating your own `plugins`, and which `hooks` are
+available, head on over to [app.use()](#appusehooks).

 ### app = choo(opts)
-Initialize a new `choo` app. Takes an optional object of handlers. Handlers can
-be:
-- __onError(err, state, createSend):__ called when an `effect` or
-  `subscription` emit an error. If no handler is passed, the default handler
-  will `throw` on each error.
-- __onAction(action, state, name, caller, createSend):__ called when an
-  `action` is fired.
-- __onStateChange(action, state, prev, caller, createSend):__ called after a
-  reducer changes the `state`.
-
-`createSend()` is a special function that allows the creation of a new named
-`send()` function. The first argument should be a string which is the name, the
-second argument is a boolean `callOnError` which can be set to `true` to call
-the `onError` hook istead of a provided callback. It then returns a
-`send(actionName, data?)` function.
-
-Handlers should be used with care, as they're the most powerful interface into
-the state. For application level code it's generally recommended to delegate to
-actions inside models using the `send()` call, and only shape the actions
-inside the handlers.
