CysTerra extension development documentation

CysTerra is a universal geohazard information platform that fetches information related to earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanoes, etc. from various event sources, and combines them into a unified interface with text description, map representation, and text-to-speech output.

In Beta 0.8.0, CysTerra introduced an extension system that allows adding event sources and other features by installing extensions. This documentation introduces how to develop an extension.

Important

Extensions are only supported by the universal build. They are NOT supported by the Android build.
