Inside the Mind shows how to create JSON packages for Houdini to help distribute tools quickly to other users.

This new tutorial from Inside The Mind covers how to work with and create JSON packages in Side FX Houdini so you can efficiently distribute tools and other things like Plugins and custom toolbars.

There are a few scripting languages, and some just for data exchange. JSON is a standard data format for JavaScript Notation that you can use to transfer data. Plenty of apps allow you to import, export, and work with JSON data one way or another.

Houdini allows you to import and export JSON. For more on importing JSON into Houdini, visit this tutorial from David Kahl that can help people get started. Visit that tutorial here.
