Godot plugin
Adds an AssetHoard tab to the Godot 4 editor. Search your library and import assets, bundles or whole projects, dependencies included.
Switching between AssetHoard and Godot to find a file, then dragging it across, gets old fast. This plugin puts your library inside the editor. An AssetHoard tab sits next to 2D, 3D, Script and AssetLib, so you can search, browse bundles and import what you need without leaving Godot.
What it does
- An AssetHoard tab next to 2D, 3D, Script and AssetLib.

- Import selected assets, a whole bundle or a whole project into the folder selected in the FileSystem dock.
