GUI-API

GUIAPI is a simple API for creating menus/GUIs. These menus use a combination of custom inventories, custom items, and custom events in order to create an in-depth menu where the player clicks on a button (custom item) in a GUI (custom inventory) to cause custom events which allow for flexible menus. Non-Plugin Developers: This is just an API for other plugins to build upon. This Plugin does (nearly) nothing on its own, it needs a plugin to utilize this API. I made this after requiring an API of this sort for one of my other plugins (EnhancedSpawners), so I made one and decided to release a standalone edition of this API. I know, this kind of API has been done before, but I want to put my own spin on things :P . Also, if you ever need help, just PM me!
