Godot Plugin Updater a Godot plugin for Godot plugin makers to give their plugins an easy in-editor updating.
Why was this made?

Publishing new versions of your plugin to the Godot Asset library is slow and not easily automated. There's also no official or mature dependency management system for Godot. There are a few plugins that use similar updating approaches but their update mechanisms aren't easily reusable by other plugin makers.

There is a proposal (#8451) to solve this missing of functionality in Godot, but it is understandably difficult to pick a solution because there are a lot of trade-offs.

Having no obligation to make everyone happy, this tool was made to solve the pain for some projects with simple needs.
