Notable Godot Assets of interest to programmers

Here, I will feature curated assets that should be of interest to GDScript programmers and coders.

The Godot Asset Library features projects, templates, and demos that may be installed from the Project Manager screen of the Editor.

Also, when inside of the Godot Project Editor, you may download assets that are called Addons that may be installed in your project file structure under an Addons directory. These are called plugins in other frameworks that you may have come across.

And, you may be thinking: why is the store called a Library? Well, it’s due to the need to have all of the code open source and free, hence why the repository is not called the Godot Asset Store.

After a survey of Godot Enine users for a name for this Dialog System, my suggestion of the Japanese word for story teller: Rakugo was chosen.
