Create a new plugin
Open Pentaho App Builder using the PUC menu, or directly from http://localhost:8080/pentaho/plugin/sparkl/api/main. When you start Pentaho App Builder, you will be in the following dashboard. I referred to the dashboard, because Pentaho App Builder is itself dashboard:
In the preceding image, you will find the following buttons/options:

Refresh: This refreshes the list of available plugins.
Create a new Plugin: Click this plus sign to be able to create new plugins. You will learn more about this later in the chapter.
Play: This will open/execute the main dashboard of the plugin.
Edit: You will be redirected to another window where you can edit the metadata of the plugin, or create/edit/remove end points.
Remove: This deletes the plugin from the system folder. The files will be removed from the
system...
