Adobe Photoshop UXP Scripting

A modern scripting system for Photoshop that allows developers to execute standalone JavaScript files with the .psjs extension to automate tasks. Unlike full UXP plugins, scripts are single files that run once and complete, similar to the legacy ExtendScript workflow but using modern JavaScript powered by the V8 engine.
