Oxygen Add-ons Support

Oxygen provides support to automatically discover and install add-ons from a remote location.

Two Types of Add-ons are Supported:

  • Framework - a collection of files (CSS stylesheets, XML schemas, transformation scenarios, specific actions, and more) that provide custom functionality for a specific type of document. Note that frameworks that you install through the add-ons system are read-only.
  • Plugin - a software component that adds extended functionality using a series of extension points provided by Oxygen.
