Howdy all. I've been working on Plugsy, a plugin framework for MV plugin developers that seeks to replace some of the boilerplate plugin code that winds up in basically every MV plugin. It's written primarily for use with TypeScript and ES6, but will probably work just fine with vanilla ES5. (You'll need to update the config to build for an older JS target.) A brief overview of some features: automagical data serialization - no more manual save code or property collisions on $gameSystem!

I've been working on Plugsy, a plugin framework for MV plugin developers that seeks to replace some of the boilerplate plugin code that winds up in basically every MV plugin.
It's written primarily for use with TypeScript and ES6, but will
probably work just fine with vanilla ES5. (You'll need to update the config to build for an older JS target.) A brief overview of some features:
- automagical data serialization - no more manual save code or property collisions on $gameSystem!
- declarative plugin commands - no more messing around with the interpreter!
Some standalone features that are also integrated with the aforementioned ones.
- shimmer: easy method overwriting - no more obnoxious prototype futzing!
- tagger: XML-style notetag parsing - no more hand-written regexes!
- loader: promise-based data loading - no more XMLHttpRequests!
There isn't any integration testing yet, so I'm not going to claim it'll work perfectly within MV (getting MV running in a server-side environment is a nightmare) but the shimmer, tagger and loader exports are thoroughly tested and should work just fine. Code is on GitHub -- MIT license, so use it for whatever. I'd appreciate a shout-out if you do end up using it, but it's not necessary by any means. Issues and PRs appreciated.
It's primarily targeted to the more savvy devs at the moment - you'll need
NodeJS installed before you can hack on it.
