Java plugin system implementations

Remarks

If you use an IDE and/or build system, it is much easier to set up this kind of project. You create a main application module, then API module, then create a plugin module and make it dependent on the API module or both. Next, you configure where the project artifacts are to be put - in our case the compiled plugin jars can be sent straight to ‘plugins’ directory, thus avoiding doing manual movement.
