DxO PureRAW is an independent program, not a plugin. DxO PureRAW offers direct export to Adobe Photoshop Creative Cloud versions, and Adobe Photoshop Elements 18.0 and support this workflow. However, you can select any other third party software to export your images to. It just needs to be able to open linear DNG files.
Additionally, DxO PureRAW offers a plug-in for Adobe Lightroom Classic CC.
