Joomla 4+ Introduces Native Plugin Architecture and Expanded API Support for Components

Plugins are now fully native to the Joomla's new architecture, leveraging a modern, containerized system that aligns with the platform's new file structure. This update ensures seamless performance and compatibility across all Joomla environments.
Furthermore, JCB now allows the addition of APIs for all component admin views (basic first step), empowering developers to extend and customize functionality more easily than ever before.
