Construct Addon Manager
A downloadable tool
I'm working on an idea for a useful and user-friendly tool called the Construct 2 Addon Manager. This tool will make it easy to install and manage behaviors, effects, and plugins for Construct 2. Instead of manually copying files and dealing with folders, users will be able to browse, download, and install add-ons directly through the manager. The goal is to save time, reduce errors, and improve the overall experience for Construct 2 developers by simplifying the process of working with extensions. The application will be built using ElectronJS and released as a native Windows desktop app

π§ Project Plan
-
Automatic download and installation of addons for Construct 2
The tool will support automatic downloading and installation of plugins, behaviors, and effects for Construct 2 from a centralized library. -
Addon downloads for Construct 3
Users will also be able to download plugins, effects, and behaviors made for Construct 3, with an option to store them locally for manual setup. -
Source code purchase and download
The tool will offer a feature to purchase and download addon source code, if provided by the authors. -
Middleware functionality for project launching
The Addon Manager will function as middleware when opening.capxfiles:-
Instead of launching Construct 2 directly, users open the project via the Addon Manager.
-
If the project is missing any plugins, the manager will detect, download, and install them automatically.
-
Once everything is set up, the project will be opened with the required dependencies already in place.
-
-
Compatibility with different Construct 2 versions
The Addon Manager will support opening projects even if the Construct 2 version differs from the one the project was originally made with, thanks to intelligent version handling and dependency resolution.
