Gizmos are groups of nodes defined by users and packaged for easy distribution and quick access. They're similar to Houdini Digital Assets in that they're packaged functions and tools with a UI specified for those tasks.

Within Nuke, access the latest installed gizmos via: Toolbar > Other > All plugins > Update

Note that this Update only applies to the current session. Instead, add the gizmos to the Toolbar via the menu.py file so they are loaded each time Nuke is initiated.

Set NUKE_PATH environment variable to directory with init.py and plugin/gizmo content.

Populate init.py file with specific relative paths since environment variable is recognized by Nuke.

Add menu items to toolbar via menu.py, including icons, documentation, and other customization.
