What is a Minecraft plugin?

Plugins are generally additional content or functions that can be added to games

A Minecraft plugin is an extension for a Minecraft server which adds new functions, commands and logic in Minecraft.

What it can't do is add new items. That would require a modification.

Plugins are intended for Minecraft servers, they expand the functions of the server. Strictly speaking, they are NOT Minecraft plugins, but plugins for the corresponding server software, so it would be, for example, paper plugins or waterfall plugins.

For example, new commands can be created, but there are many, many more options.

Plugins are not additional content… But expanded options with existing things, a mod is additional stuff

Can you do that in the BE?

BE have no idea

Is it only possible on the server?

Plugins are for servers.

Modifications are for client or server

I saw a server presentation in Minecraft BE and there were other commands too

Is there a mod with which you can make new commands? (I would like to try it out)

Definitely there. Just don't know a name

Ok, look it up

Yes, you can do that in BE too.

How?!

The plugins must be in the plugins folder. For this you need server software that supports plugins.
