Hooks

Introduction
Hooks allow developers to customize and extend the behavior of liquidity pools. They are external smart contracts that can be attached to individual pools to intercept and modify the execution flow at specific points during pool-related actions.
The logic is executed before and/or after major operations such as pool creation, liquidity addition and removal, swapping, and donations.
Through these hook functions, developers can build sophisticated features like custom AMMs with different pricing curves, yield farming protocols, advanced trading features including limit orders, dynamic fee strategies, and custom oracle implementations. Each pool can have one hook (though a hook can serve multiple pools), hooks are optional and specified during pool creation, and developers can implement any combination of hook functions based on their needs.
