Plugin Verification

For obvious reasons, plugins are considered "third-party code" by the smartCARS core and as such, require user consent to install or update. Plugins that are verified by TFDi Design are considered "first-party" and can be installed or updated without an additional dialog. Verified plugins will also display that status in a green bubble to the users.

The requirements to have a plugin verified are outlined below.

• The developer must be known by the community and have a credible reputation
• The plugin source code must be provided to, built, and deployed by TFDi Design (credit will go to the submitting developer)
• The plugin must have had formal testing lasting at least 7 days with a sample size of 5 or more different users

Plugin verification is currently on a per-plugin, per-version basis. This means that if an update is uploaded to a verified plugin, it will become unverified and require re-verification by TFDi Design.
