Dirk Krause shares some of the pitfalls that he ran into while creating a simple add-on.
This video shows some learnings from creating a Blender Add-on.
The Add-on directly saves a glTF/glb file to a defined folder without any dialogs via shortcut. Huge timesaver if you want quick turnarounds for game prototypes.
Works with 3.5x and 4.x.
Also, the video was recorded with OBS and rendered in Blender! :)
