Well, that was easy :) Looks like Kitten¹ is going to be a great way to build Penpot Plugins.
Took me no time at all to port Kitten Kawaii² to a Penpot³ plugin. All in all, had to write 10 lines of extra code.
Might enter this in the plugin contest³ that’s going on and write something up about it next.

One of the advantages of deploying Kitten sites/apps is that you can set up a webhook URL in your source code repository so that every time you push to your main branch, you app automatically updates.
(This is a feature for developers. For everyday people who use technology as an everyday thing, Kitten sites deployed via Domain will automatically update based on a versioning system that ensures API stability between the app and Kitten so that sites don’t break. Kitten itself also auto-updates.)

@aral this sounds really cool -- and I have only a superficial grasp of how this would be even possible! :)

@ctietze Thanks. It’s pretty simple, really, on the Codeberg/Forgejo side, they use git hooks to make a HTTPS request to the webhook URL whenever there’s a push (in this case, only to the main branch). On the Kitten side, Kitten deploys apps from their git repositories so all it has to do is pull in the latest changes.
This is the webhook code on the Kitten side of things:
