Pebble OS adds JavaScript plugin support for apps and watchfaces

Pebble founder Eric Migicovsky announced plugin support for Pebble OS, calling it the biggest change to the SDK in the platform's history. Plugins written in JavaScript will run on smartphones rather than the watches, letting watchfaces and apps pull in data like weather and stock prices or perform actions without hardcoding.

• Plugins are written in JavaScript and run on the phone, not the watch
• Watchfaces can pull weather and stock data without hardcoding
