Building Plugins

The QGIS source distribution contains a number of "core" plugins. These are built along with QGIS using the instructions above. Additional external plugins are available from the QGIS community website at http://community.qgis.org. Instructions for building an external plugin can be found at http://wiki.qgis.org/qgiswiki/StepByStepBuildInstructions. Some external plugins may include instructions on building. If so, follow the instructions provided with the plugin rather than those provided in the wiki.
