Editor Extension

Cocos Creator provides several methods to help users customize and extend the editor. The user extensions will be loaded by packages. Custom packages or third party packages can be installed by putting them into the right place. Extensions may need to be manually reloaded in the editor window or even restart the editor to make the installed packages work.

Cocos Creator inherits the usage of package.json that is used in Node.js to manifest the contents and registry in your package.
