By using classes, you’re ensuring that methods are only used on one set of data. This adds to the security of the code because you’re less likely to use functions where they don’t belong.

Everything in Python is an object, or so the saying goes. If you want to create your own custom objects, with their own properties and methods, you use Python’s class object to make that happen.

In this example, we’ve created a metaclass PluginMeta that inherits from type. The __new__ method is used to customize the class creation process.
