+### About
+
+The plugin-system of Lychee allows you to execute scripts, when a certain action fires. Plugins are hooks, which are injected directly into Lychee. They only affect the back-end and can't modify the front-end.
+
+### Use Cases
+
+* Automatically watermark photos on upload
+* Automatically set albums public
+* Write metadata changes back to the original photo
+* …
+
+### How to create a plugin
+
+1. Create a folder in `plugins/`
+2. Create an `index.php` within the new folder and with the following content:
+
+```php
+<?php
+
+###
+# @name			ExamplePlugin
+# @author		Tobias Reich
+# @copyright	2014 by Tobias Reich
+###
+
+if (!defined('LYCHEE')) exit('Error: Direct access is not allowed!');
+
+class ExamplePlugin implements SplObserver {
+
+	private $database = null;
+	private $settings = null;
+
+	public function __construct($database, $settings) {
+
+		# These params are passed to your plugin from Lychee
+		# Save them to access the database and settings of Lychee
+		$this->database = $database;
+		$this->settings = $settings;
+		
+		# Add more code here if wanted
+		# __construct() will be called every time Lychee gets called
+		# Make sure this part is performant
+
+		return true;
+
+	}
+
+	public function update(\SplSubject $subject) {
+
+		# Check if the called hook is the hook you are waiting for
+		# A list of all hooks is available online
+		if ($subject->action!=='Photo::add:before') return false;
+
+		# Do something when Photo::add:before gets called
+		# $this->database => The database of Lychee
+		# $this->settings => The settings of Lychee
+		# $subject->args => Params passed to the original function
+		
+		return true;
+		
+	}
+
+}
+
+# Register your plugin
+$plugins->attach(new ExamplePlugin($database, $settings));
+```
+
+3. Add the plugin-path to the database of Lychee
+
+Select the table `lychee_settings` and edit the value of `plugins` to the path of your plugin. The path must be relative from the `plugins/`-folder: `ExamplePlugin/index.php`.
+
+Divide multiple plugins with commas: `Plugin01/index.php,Plugin02/index.php`.
+
+### Available hooks
+
+##### About :before and :after
+Hooks named `:before` will be executed prior to the original function.
+Hooks named `:after` will be executed after the original function.
+

 It's also possible to build extensions upon Lychee. The way to do so isn't documented and can change every time. We recommend to use the plugin-system, when possible.
