Why Addon?
We need a plugin system that allows users to use/load only certain features quickly.
Naming conventions
Plugin name: valaxy-addon-<name>.
Add-on, compared to Plug-in, typically implies modifications to the user interface, as well as being applicable only on a specific platform. For example, the Edge Add-on Store, Slidev, and others use the naming convention "Addon".
Valaxy fully supports the use of Vite and Vue ecosystem plugins. In addition, we may also require support for some plugins that are specific to Valaxy, which can control the entire process before the Vite/Vue plugins are executed.
In this scenario, the Addon API is only applicable to the Valaxy platform.
Explanation
What can addons do?
For example, they can create a Live2D widget, a global music player, or modify some configurations of Vite and its built-in plugins.
Addons are used to complement what Vite/Vue plugins cannot achieve or to simplify complicated configurations.
