ROM hacks are game mods that work by modifying or adding to a games files to change or add new content. ROM hacks can be made for a variety of different reasons, from making a game harder, adding new levels, translating the game to a different language, texture packs, randomization, and much more. Most ROM hacks on 3DS are distributed as unpacked files, and applied using Luma3DS's layeredfs. You can find some ROM hacks on their individual game pages; see a full list at [[:Category:Nintendo 3DS games|Category:Nintendo 3DS games]], or use the search feature.

Plugins are add-ons that run with a game. Plugins generally come in two types, 3GX or PLG. [[3DS:Game plugins/3GX|3GX plugins]] run using Luma3DS's built in plugin loader, while [[3DS:Game plugins/PLG|PLG plugins]] can be run using [https://github.com/Nanquitas/BootNTR BootNTR]. 3GX plugins are usually newer and should generally be used if given a choice. You can find some plugins on their individual game pages; see a full list at [[:Category:Nintendo 3DS games|Category:Nintendo 3DS games]], or use the search feature.
