Extensions Overview#

Omniverse Extensions are the core building blocks of Omniverse Kit-based Apps. These make up the individual tools you use within USD Explorer, USD Composer, and other Apps. Because Kit-based Apps are composed of Extensions, you can extend the functionality of the Apps you use to meet your needs by creating new Extensions or editing or activating existing ones.

List of Extensions#

For convinience, below is a table of all Omniverse user extensions (Extensions that have a user interface).

It should be noted that this list of Extensions is not complete and more developer extensions can be found in the Kit developer documentation.
