Yeah it's probably worth asking - honestly it's possible it wasn't used that frequently and we may have thought that no one was using it! If nothing else it's useful for our support team to know that you liked it and used it 🙂

Yeah, I can certainly just clone existing plugin projects (I've built plenty of them), set up a new appian-plugin.xml, do manual builds and copy the jar to <appian_home>/admin/plugins but the question then is why would Appian remove a perfectly functional piece of tooling? I think I'll raise this as a support case just in case the omission is inadvertent.

Thanks,

I believe most of our plug-in docs don't rely directly on that bundle tool anymore, so our instructions focus on starting with a blank project instead. That being said, I personally don't usually start with a blank project - instead I copy from an existing one to get me going! if you go to this page in our docs, it links to a few examples: docs.appian.com/.../csp-reference-examples.html. Then, you can copy over the example directories and just change the files you need to get going.
