Starting with Blender 4.5, add-on developers can provide their developments to users in two formats: both traditional add-ons and new extensions. While the average user might not notice these internal format differences when installing and working with add-ons and extensions, some confusion can arise when an add-on or extension needs to be removed.
Starting with Blender 4.5, the developers fundamentally changed the approach to developing Blender add-ons. Now – Extensions, rather than Add-ons. The old add-on format still works correctly, and if you don’t intend to publish your add-ons in the official Blender Extensions library, you don’t need to change anything. However, if you want your add-ons to be supported by Blender in the future, it’s a good idea to make some changes now. One such improvement is the creation of a manifest file.
