 Similarly, you can use `charts.d.plugin` for BASH plugins and `node.d.plugin` for node.js plugins.
-Other plugins (like `apps.plugin`, `freeipmi.plugin`, `fping.plugin`) use the native netdata plugin API and can be run directly.

 If you need to configure a netdata plugin or module, all user supplied configuration is kept at `/etc/netdata` while the stock versions of all files is at `/usr/lib/netdata/conf.d`.
 To copy a stock file and edit it, run `/etc/netdata/edit-config`. Running this command without an argument, will list the available stock files.
