### Setup Build Environment

Source: https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/5.0/contribute/manual/getting_started/local_editing/install/linux.html

Installs necessary dependencies for building the Blender Manual. This command should be re-run periodically to ensure dependencies are up-to-date.

```bash
make setup
```

--------------------------------

### Install Packages Command

Source: https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/5.0/advanced/command_line/extension_arguments.html

Installs specified packages. Use -s to sync, -e to enable after installation, and --no-prefs to prevent user-preference updates.

```bash
blender --command extension install [-h] [-s] [-e] [--no-prefs]
                                    PACKAGES

```

--------------------------------

### Install Build Dependencies

Source: https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/5.0/contribute/manual/getting_started/local_editing/install/windows.html

Install all necessary dependencies for building the Blender manual using the provided make command.

```bash
make setup

```

--------------------------------

### Create and Activate Virtual Environment

Source: https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/5.0/contribute/manual/getting_started/local_editing/install/linux.html

Creates a Python virtual environment named '.venv' and installs project dependencies from 'requirements.txt'. This is automatically handled by 'make setup'.

```bash
python3 -m venv .venv
.venv/bin/pip install -r requirements.txt
```

--------------------------------

### Launch Blender from Installation Directory

Source: https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/5.0/advanced/command_line/launch/linux.html

Navigate to your Blender installation directory and execute the Blender binary. This is useful when Blender is not in your system's PATH.

```bash
cd <blender installation directory>
./blender

```

--------------------------------

### Transform Driver Example

Source: https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/5.0/animation/drivers/workflow_examples.html

Control an object's rotation based on another object's position. This setup is useful for creating linked object movements.

```text
1. Add a Driver to the _Rotation Y_ property of the second object via the context menu or with `Ctrl`-`D`.
2. Open the _Drivers Editor_ and select the _Y Euler Rotation_ property in the channels region.
3. Open the Sidebar region and select the _Drivers_ tab.
4. Configure the driver to be the _Averaged Value_ of a _Transform Channel_ of the first object.
5. Experiment with moving the first object and notice how it affects the Y rotation of the second object.
```

--------------------------------

### Get Add-on Paths in Blender

Source: https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/5.0/advanced/scripting/addon_tutorial.html

A Python snippet to print the current add-on search paths within Blender. This is useful for understanding where Blender looks for add-ons and where they are installed.

```python
import addon_utils
print(addon_utils.paths())

```

--------------------------------

### Install Package from File Command

Source: https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/5.0/advanced/command_line/extension_arguments.html

Installs a package file into a specified user repository. Use -e to enable and --no-prefs to prevent user-preference updates.

```bash
blender --command extension install-file [-h] -r REPO [-e] [--no-prefs]
                                         FILE

```
