Launchpad plugins
On BTP the plugin is an HTML5 app in the site's content, assigned to a role in SAP Build Work Zone and loaded when the site starts, with no tile.
Overview
SAP Build Work Zone loads shell plugins. In the advanced edition a plugin is an HTML5 app in the MTA whose manifest sets "type": "plugin" and hides its launcher, and the runtime loads and initialises it when the site starts; SAP's BTP documentation points to the standard edition's page for integrating apps and shell plugins.
The plugin itself is UI5 code.
