Since I was in the same boat as you are, here's the answer.
You don't need to download anything extra if you have DR installed on your PC. Just check the Developer folder where Resolve is installed and you will find all the variations you could use to create a plugin.
For instance, on Linux, go to:
- Code: Select all
/opt/resolve/Developer
You will have access to SDKs alongside working examples.
If you're after full control, and high end plugins, then look no further than the OpenFX one.
The OpenFX is a standardized SDK to write cross-platform plugins for a bunch of Hosts like Resolve/Fusion, Nuke (the inventor of the SDK), Naton, Vegas, Flame ...etc
Happy coding.
