Bill's right, and...

PPro has several APIs; what would you like your plugin(s) to be able to do?

If you look for an easy way to create extensions for Premiere Pro, my (paid) extension Automation Blocks for Pr is also an option. You can build your own custom automations - even with user inferfaces - by combining visual blocks instead of writing program code.

We also have the Community Library, where you can share what you created.

I (will be) learning Automation Blocks , as an old-school coder and editor, I was wondering @Bruce Bullis if the recomendations from this thread are still the way to go considering your Post today: UXP pre-release SDK available.

Thanks!

For any new development, I'd investigate whether what you want to do is already possible via UXP, before starting a new CEP+ExtendScript-based extension. No decommissioning date has been established for CEP in PPro, but it's always better to be on the 'new' side, of an obsolescence. 🙂
