How to install plugins in Qt Creator?

The following link has a gallery for useful Qt creator plugins.

https://wiki.qt.io/Qt_Creator_Plug-in_Gallery

But unfortunately, I don't know how to install any of them. For example, how to install artistic code style plugin?

Does Qt creator has a plugin manager like Eclipse that facilitates adding plugins through it?

You can find instructions for installation at the bottom of the webpage of Artistic Code Style plugin:

Quick

Move the downloaded zip/tar.bz2 archive to the root directory of Qt Creator and extract it. After a restart of Qt Creator all should work.

Looks like plugins can be found under .\QtCreator\lib\qtcreator\plugins so if you want to install a plugin you just need to copy the files of the plugin (one dll and one pluginspec) there and (re)start Qt Creator.
