Droplets are actually small pieces of PHP code, just like you might use in a CODE section. Some restrictions apply to the used code:

• You cannot use the echo or print commands.
• The data you want to end up in the website output is sent as the "return" value of the Droplet code.

Droplets are defined in your site using double-square-brackets. An example of a Droplet definition is [[ExampleDroplet]].
