Transforming jQuery plugins into eZ publish extensions

Conclusion
It is not hard to transform jQuery extensions into eZ publish extensions, hopefully with the help of this tutorial the process will be clear and faster for you. I tried to expose an as generic as possible method, relying on an eZ Flow block. Bear in mind that not all Jquery plug-ins are suited for transformation into an eZ Flow block, but that 100% of them can be integrated into eZ Publish.
