Add-ons extend the capabilities of MATLAB^®by providing additional functionality for specific tasks and applications, such as connecting to hardware devices, additional algorithms, and interactive apps. They encompass a wide variety of resources, including products, apps, support packages, and toolboxes. Add-ons are available from MathWorks^®and from the global MATLAB user community.

To find and install add-ons, seeGet Add-Ons. You can also create your own add-ons, including apps and toolboxes. For more information about creating apps, seePackage Apps From the MATLAB Toolstrip. For more information about creating toolboxes, seeCreate and Share Toolboxes.

You can share add-ons you create by submitting them to theFile Exchange atMATLABCentral. The add-ons you share are discoverable in both the File Exchange and the Add-On Explorer.
