Allow Adobe XD to have third party plugins/extensions
Hello there,
I’m happy to share that you can now create and use plugins in Adobe XD.
Please take a look here to learn more: https://adobexdplatform.com/
Thank you so much for your feedback!

It would be nice to make this project open source to allow the developers and passionate technology advocates to work closer with the great Adobe XD team :)

Hot Search/ Run:
Not only saves time, but also very much easy to use.
Now a days, We(user) want "on hands".Say if i'm half the way of designing any interface
and trying to insert any symbol/ object/ element to particular place
It would be obvious to go, search for "symbol, library panel" and then find the appropriate element like Large Button, Navigation.. and finally drag drop to the screen.Instead we could search for what we want in a single interaction.
If we are searching for it, We would have already created/ known about it. (Let it be symbols or executing any menu commands).It could also done by solving some of the pain points the current sketch runner plugin has.
For example: If I am searching for a symbol using the runner, and trying to use a particular symbol.1) I should Click it.
.... It randomly adds the symbol in to screen.How about getting the symbol on the place were the cursor is present.
From that,
we can place the cursor were the item need to be created and then search for [xyz] and confirm it. (So that it adds the element in place)This way works well for reusable element.
Likewise we could get more out on other commands/ any.

Th ability for testing tools to integrate so that users can test their prototype using their testing tools of choice. This typically means allow for the insertion of a javascript snippet. The best way though may be to allow 3rd party vendors to apply then have their JS snippet templated thus not allowing random insertion of JS. User could then either paste in an id from their 3rd party provider or perform some form of automated 'connection' so the JS template from the 3rd party provider includes their unique id.
The use case is that many people create templates so they can then test their theories and concepts on a suer base. There are many existing testing tools and panels that users are comfortable with and they use regularly. Allowing XD to integrate with their existing workflows would surely remove a major barrier for non Adobe users to come across and try the product.
There would also need to be some documentation or API for the 3rd parties to utilise so they could track events or screens that are navigated to and from within the XD prototypes.

Something that allows the folks at avocode.com to make a plugin would be huge for us.

Somehow integrating with Principle for Mac would be amazing.

Marketch - A sketch plugin that exports a 'styleguide' type of interactive HTML file where end users can click around (interactively) and see the entire artboard, with positions, offsets, fonts, and colors, along with CSS code snippets for element styles.

Zeplin plugin is vital for our working environment. It enables us to share the design with design and development teams, add comments and track feedbacks, colour code feedbacks and set priorities, export assets directly from Zeplin for different platforms in different sizes.

What I would need
- API with documentation
- Example/template plugins
- Easy or no certificate signing process
- ScriptListener (similar to PS)
- Something like Configurator to keep UI consistent and fast and easy for developers
- ES6 -

This is a very important feature, not because there is one or two features I am looking for, but because it opens up the potential for those plug-ins I didn't even know I wanted, but can't live without once I have them.
There is no way a single team at Adobe can keep up with the power of an open community of developer producing plug-ins.

As a dev, I want to extend Adobe XD with a Motion Design plugin.
I want to allow users to do MD in many shapes and forms. Button transitions, page choreography, etc!
Exporting to JSON, so that any tool or library could easily digest the data for whatever purpose.
On a technical note, I'd greatly prefer working in plain JavaScript (ES2016 and beyond). As the language of the web you are taking advantage of a huge ecosystem.
Integrated support for Node.js etc would be sweet, but really, just having API support for stuff like WebSockets/Fetch API to talk to Node.js servers would be OK.

This is a huge win that Sketch currently boasts – there are tons of community-driven plugins that provide extremely useful things to Sketch without the main application needing to spend time building out these niche features.
- Designing with data
- Generating lorem ipsum, actual text, user avatars, user names, addresses, cities, states, zip codes, etc.
- dynamic buttons (expand to fit content based on a padding)
- instant chart elementsHere's a list of featured plugins and extensions: https://www.sketchapp.com/extensions/

I agree that Javascript would be best for user to write own plug-ins, and even connect to node.js service.
Would urge Adobe to design the API properly to allow full access to everything, and not have to use a "script listener" to obtain obscure scripts (as with photoshop). The opportunity is there to get a great plug-in API that is easy to use and is comprehensive -

Would be great to support suitcase auto-activate.
