What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps developers easily obtain and organize the dependencies and prebuilt libraries needed for iPlug2 projects, reducing manual setup time and version drift.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Automated dependency setup: Download plugin SDKs (VST3, CLAP, WAM) and optional Skia libraries with guided steps.
  • Platform-aware workflows: Includes guidance for iOS targets and notes about AUv2/AUv3 no-SDK requirements.
  • Practical use case: When starting a new iPlug2 project, run this Skill to fetch all necessary SDKs and libraries and ensure the repo is ready for build.

Quick Start

  1. Navigate to the Dependencies directory and run the setup scripts:
    • cd ./Dependencies/IPlug/
    • ./download-iplug-sdks.sh
    • cd ../
    • ./download-prebuilt-libs.sh
    • For iOS targets (macOS only): ./download-prebuilt-libs.sh ios
  2. Review notes on manual SDKs:
    • VST2 SDK is no longer publicly available
    • AAX SDK must be downloaded manually from Avid's developer portal
  3. After execution, return to the repo root and continue setup.
