UXP Plugins: Panel and Extensions

With the release of UXP in Premiere Pro public beta, you may notice that we universally refer to panels and extensions built with UXP as plugins. This is a change compared to the previous use of this terminology in Premiere Pro, where plugins referred primarily to in-app or third party effects in Premiere Pro.

While this continues to be the case, plugins will also be used as an ecompassing word for UXP to describe panels, extensions, and eventually scripts as well. The primary reason for this is to maintain consistency with other Adobe Creative Cloud applications that refer to UXP extensions as plugins, including Photoshop and InDesign.
