Bukkit, the plugin development framework.
The documentation is for developing plugins and is split into the respective packages for each subject matter. This documentation does not cover running a server, contributing code back to the project, or setting up a workspace. Working knowledge of the Java language is a prerequisite for developing plugins.
For basic plugin development, see the plugin
package. It covers the basic requirements of a plugin jar.
For handling events and triggered code, see the event package.
Note: While the Bukkit API makes every effort to ensure stability, this is not guaranteed, especially across major versions. In particular the following is a (incomplete) list of things that are not API.
