In summary packages are pure dart code, while plugins contain other language

Keep it up. I am a Google Developer.

There's a packages available for literally anything that you might be tempted to build your entire app with packages itself.

Only use packages when you have less time to write it all yourself or if you are going to use most of the functionalities of a particular package.

[gregkrekelberg]

So are all plugins 'platform' plugins? That is, do they all have roughly two components per platform, a Dart native portion and a platform specific portion joined by a messaging interface? Are all packages pure Dart?
