Just about everything in the Adapt Learning Framework is a plugin. You can create custom components for rendering learning content (like questions, graphical components, video players, etc). You can create extensions for existing components or core framework elements (e.g. the Triggered extension hides components and reveals them on button press). You can also create custom menus or themes.

For a list of plugins found in the core bundle, head to: Core Plug ins in the Adapt Learning Framework
