following this tutorial to make a sin design plugin

I open the windows search feature by typing simultaneously the Windows key and the S key. I use windows search to open the creative cloud desktop app by typing "creat" and then Enter. I use the trackpad to move the cursor to the search bar in the application and tap on it to focus on the search bar. I type "UXP" and then enter and it shows me a results page for the search term which has 65 entries. The app is the first result (spatially, temporally they all arrive at the same time) so I click the icon beside its name (a Lego brick with angle brackets and a forward slash like this: "</>" on top of it). On the next screen I am told that the software "Works on this device" (what does it mean for software to work?) and I click install. The install button which was Bold text "Install" centered in white on a blue pill shape with rounder corners, is replaced by grey italic text that says "Waiting...". I get distracted for a few minutes looking up the etymology of typing.

enable

The "Waiting..." text has been replaced by another blue pill, "Open". I click on it fervently. Oh to my joy when I am presented with the "Enable Developer Mode" dialog box. The "Enable" button is tastefully and subtly ornamented with a thin blue outline, an elegant aura in celebration of not only my chance to exercise my Administrator privileges but also becoming subjected to not one but two Terms of Use agreements. I click it excitedly.

I enter a unique plugin name and slug, a host application (Adobe InDesign version 18.5) and choose the quick-starter template. Im so good at following the tutorial and documenting every tiny silly detail wow.

Step 2: Run the plugin
Now that you have created your plugin, you can run it in InDesign.

I open InDesign. No, I try to open InDesign. It stalls on a grey screen. I press Ctrl+Shift+Esc to open the task manager. InDesign's status is "Not Responding". I press end task. The operation is not valid. I'll turn off my computer and pretend nothing happened.

woooooo

It's the next day and I opened indesign again and was more patient and it opened finne and you have to load the plugin in UXP developer and now it works woop.

Its a different day and i tried to see what inputs I could put in the InDesign plugin. And I made an Inkscape plugin from this template https://github.com/Neon22/inkscape_extension_template

Adobe has something called the spectrum design system. It should:

provide components and tools to help product teams work more efficiently, and to make Adobe’s applications more cohesive.
