Blender 2.9 Python Addon Programming Tutorial

This is a Blender Python programming tutorial in which I show how to code an addon with a real world use-case: Applying or removing all modifiers of an active object.

I use Visual Studio Code to develop my addon with Blender, and an extension named Blender development by Jacques Lucke, that you can download form VS Code (Extension tab).

I use Blender 2.9 for this tutorial but you can use Blender 2.8 as well.

Omg, I can't imagine a free pro Python for Blender tutorial more than the one published by Jaynam and his great channel, and some of my friends waiting for this and I'll recommend it for them...Thank you.

Worked like a charm, thanks for the quick to-the-point introduction!

I was waiting for this. Thank you very much!

When following your instructions, VSCode doesn't recognise the imports from blender (bpy, gpu etc). How do I get it to see those imports correctly?

This is like Web Development but with extremely powerful and endless possibilities.

Awesome video, keep up the great work! :)

Can you do a video on handlers and events in blender? I for example want to keep track of splinepoints and the corresponding splines while editing the curve. Since the indecies of spline points are changing when editing the spline, I need to restore the spline points on every change. It would be extremely nice to know how to do something like 'if object is changed do stuff'...

[mr.banana]

Do you have a solution for this? (Import "bpy" could not be resolved) when I type import bpy.

[mostafasamir]

I'm new here, how did you open blender from vs code?
Do you have any tutorial?

[Fazoway]

good work
how to integrate other python projects to blender addon like machine learning or other libraries

[kevinmackey]

When I make changes to the script in Visual Studio Code, I have to restart Blender for the changes to take effect. Do I have something set up incorrectly?

[theologicaldarkweb]

Is there a way to import my modules without using relative import?

hi I need to help I have previously tried to modify a free add-on, but after modifying some commands I can activate the add-on, but the program cancels the original add-on and this is what I do not want. I want to activate the add-ons at the same time, but unfortunately I cannot. Any commands must adjust them to activate two add-on. please help me
