ZeroBrane Package is a collection of packages for ZeroBrane Studio.
You can find more information about ZeroBrane Studio packages and plugins in the documentation.
To install a plugin, copy its .lua file to ZBS/packages/ or HOME/.zbstudio/packages/ folder
(where ZBS is the path to ZeroBrane Studio location and HOME is the path specified by the HOME environment variable).
The first location allows you to have per-instance plugins, while the second allows to have per-user plugins.
The second option may also be preferrable for Mac OSX users as the ZBS/packages/ folder may be overwritten during an application upgrade.
The plugins may depend on a particular version of ZeroBrane Studio.
One of the fields in the plugin description is dependencies that may have as its value
(1) a table with various dependencies or (2) a minumum version number of ZeroBrane Studio required to run the plugin.
If the version number for ZeroBrane Studio is larger than the most recent released version (for example, the current release version is 0.50, but the plugin has a dependency on 0.51), this means that it requires a development version currently being worked on (which will become the next release version).
