I am a coder for bukkit but I want to come help out the PE world, What steps can I take to change from bukkit to PocketMine?
It is probably really different, but I assume it may be easier... are bukkit plugins made in Java? PocketMine is in PHP. If you want a little quick to start guide to making a plugin, look at my signature
Bukkit Plugin API is JavaScript (I also used to code Bukkit plugins). PocketMine Plugin API is PHP. So you will have to learn PHP and then follow some tutorials on how to get started.
