## Introduction

Developers have a number of different methods for extending Blue. As Blue is a modular application, built using the Netbeans Rich Client Platform (RCP), any standard RCP module and suite can be added to Blue. In conjuction with Blue's module's public APIs, this allows great flexibility for a developer to add new modules to Blue.

Additionally, rather than adding completely new windows and pieces to Blue, a developer may decide to create plugins to existing Blue architectural pieces. The following sections discuss the various plugin types and the steps to take to create your own plugin.
