Differences between CakePHP plugins and SpliceIt! Plugins

CakePHP require an own [plugin]_app_controller.php and [plugin]_app_model.php for all plugins - SpliceIt! doesn't (but you can use them ^Todo)
All SpliceIt! plugins can be soft-hacked. That means you can overwrite single functions of any plugin you wish without having to hack the plugin yourself. See Plugin-Hacks

Creating a new SpliceIt! Plugin

In order to create a new SpliceIt! plugin you have to create a new folder my_plugin (Name this whatever your plugin should be named) inside of app/plugins. This folder should contain 4 new folders like this:

app/plugins/my_plugin/apis

app/plugins/my_plugin/models
app/plugins/my_plugin/views
