What It Does
Easy Rigify is a complete rigging Workflow for Blender that bridges the gap between your mesh and Rigify. Place a set of visual markers on your character, run auto-detection, and let the addon build and align a fully configured Rigify metarig — ready to generate with one click.
Instead of hand-editing dozens of bones in edit mode, you place markers you can actually see in the viewport, let the addon do the alignment, and get a production-ready Rigify rig out the other end.
