OnyX Application



Onyx is an internet application written in Java. It consists of an update engine as well as a plugin engine.

To simplify, Onyx is a container of plugins which are always up to date. No worries anymore about getting the latest version or the latest security patches, Onyx manages all that and provides you the possibility to have several applications ("plugins") in a single one.
The application Onyx (now in version 2) is shipped with a plugin manager (which is a plugin itself) to help you search/order/add/remove plugins.
