What are hooks?

Hooks in WordPress essentially allow you to manipulate code without editing core files. They are used extensively throughout WordPress and WooCommerce and are very useful for developers.

Hooks are provided by WordPress and WooCommerce to allow your plugin or theme to ‘hook into’ the code; that is, to call functions in your plugin at specific times, and thereby set your plugin in motion.

There are two types of hook: actions and filters.

1. Actions: Actions are the hooks that the WordPress core launches at specific points during execution, or when specific events occur.

2. Filters: Filters are the hooks that WordPress launches to modify text of various types before adding it to the database or sending it to the browser screen.
