The long awaited/brewing official Blender Extensions Platform’s public alpha version has silently gone online a few days back and can be accessed at http://extensions.blender.org/ !
I’m pretty excited about this. I wonder if there will be other repositories for the addons, like the blendermarket.
So this is a third party blender addon marketplace for only free addons? Or is this from the group behind blender and planned to be the future addon system? I’ve made a couple extensions for engraving text/svgs because I make a lot of custom keycaps, is that a good fit for this platform?
There will be an official repository maintained by the Blender Foundation. It’ll have some quality control, but I don’t know what their standards will be exactly. The cool part about it is that there can be multiple, third party repositories. So people can build and maintain their own extension platforms, decentral, just like lemmy
