downloading addons would be great, we probably should figure out a common rest api or similar for ofxaddons.com so all the different tools we have can use the same format.
i think the main feature that is missing for visual studio is to create a project from existing code. i've been trying to make it work but the documentation for the visual studio plugin system is really scarce, once you find the right class is pretty straight forward but it's really hard to find the exact class you need
what do you mean by ofxAddonLib pattern?
