Some updates on JomSocial plugins and API

We have started significant amount of work on JomSocial plugins. Our top priority, is of course to get the API right, just right. When developing API, our philosophy is simple. Yes, 'simple' . For the initial release, our API will be very lean, yet usable. Although, we could potentially load up JomSocial with tons and tons of system "hooks", I will only open a few key ones, and will use feedbacks from 3rd party developer to determine which other events that they need to use.

Of course, having our code super clean, with an extremely clean MVC implementation means developer can directly request various objects and data easily.

So, what plugin is available now ?. I would love to have huge number of plugins available on release, but at the moment, we will focus on the most requested plugins first. Among others, Fireboard, Seyret video, EventList, AllVideo, Twitter and RSS feed system has been coded and is up and running. We are adding new plugin almost on a daily basis now. If you are already on our test site, please join the forum at http://forum.azrul.com and let us know what other component integration you need.

For developer, we will publish a plugin guide along with sample code and some tutorials soon. If you are interested in developing JomSocial plugin, do email us at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. and your input would help shape our API.
