The plugin console and hot reload
With developer mode on, Main menu › Object › Plugins › Hot reload plugins restarts your plugin when you save a file, and Open plugin console shows what it logs.
Hot reload
Choose Main menu › Object › Plugins › Hot reload plugins. While it is on, saving a file in your plugin's folder restarts the plugin, so you see the change without importing it again.
The console
- Choose Main menu › Object › Plugins › Open plugin console.
- Read your plugin's log output and errors as it runs.
Both need developer mode. The quickstart uses them on a real plugin.
