It could be said that most new plugins are birthed with a foot in the grave. After one or two quality plugins have become widely adopted in a particular niche, it is difficult for others to survive in that space. After reading a recent blog post about Why New Plugins Fail and seeing that people sincerely want to allow opportunity for new plugins to mature and thrive, I thought I’d devote a little time toward encouraging the exploration and consideration of new plugins that enter the world. Thus, a little forum was born in a tiny corner of the internet.
Plugin.Pub has been developed in the interest of…
- nurturing greater adoption and discussion surrounding new plugins and extensions for your preferred CMS.
- encouraging deeper cross-platform collaboration and communication.
- allowing new plugin developers an affordable way to promote their newest creations.
Grab a seat, grab a pint, and join the table. Let’s chat.
