This tutorial shows you how to create a pattern for Palapeli, that is: a plugin for the Palapeli libraries that describes an algorithm to split an image into pieces.
The pattern we will be constructing is quite easy: It splits an image into two equally sized pieces.
A pattern plugin consists of two classes. The first one (derived from Palapeli::PatternConfiguration) tells Palapeli what features this pattern plugin has and which configuration values it needs. The second one (derived from Palapeli::Pattern) does the actual slicing.
