Now that the preliminaries are out of the way, it's time to develop your first layout algorithm! It will, however, be a very simple one. This tutorial focuses on creating Eclipse plug-ins and on learning how to develop with KIML; thinking of and implementing cool layout algorithms is what the rest of the practical will focus on, and that is where the fun will be had!

Adding a New Plug-in
We need to create a new plug-in to implement the layout algorithm in. Switch back to the Java or Plug-in Development perspective and follow these steps:
...
Once you're done implementing the edge routing code, test it by running your debug configuration again, as before.
Before You Run Away...
...don't forget to commit your layout algorithm to your repository, and to push your commits to the tutorial repository on our server. If it's not there, we won't be able to see your work!
