Can i distribute my add-on with Blender?
Yes, you can! The add-ons submission guidelines explain the workflow in detail. At the end of this process you become a full responsible Blender add-on developer. Sorry we have no badges for that ... yet :)
Add-ons examples
You can find hundreds of Blender Add-Ons on the internet. But we recommend to first look at the official resources:
Python Templates (in Blender)
When you open the Text editor in Blender then you find a set of ready made python scripts which can be used as starting point for your own creation.
Add-on Online Repository
The Add-on Source repository is your source for inspiration and how to do your scripting in the Blender way. Please feel free to examine the existing Add-ons and get inspired. And yes, it is welcome to take ideas from there into your own work.
