- [Instructor] We show a lot of Dynamo tips here in the series, and sometimes your Dynamo solutions involve third party add-ins called packages. And if you've never used a package before, if you're new to Dynamo, then you might not understand why you can get errors when you load up a graph that requires one of these. So it's actually a pretty simple scenario. There's a certain amount of built-in functionality to Dynamo, that comes out of the box from the factory. You'll have this collection of Nodes in your library that get installed automatically. But then there's lots of other Nodes that are available, that are created by these third-party developers, many of whom are just Dynamo enthusiasts. And they make them available in what we call packages, that are then something you need to install from the package manager within Dynamo. And when you install these packages, then it makes those Nodes and that new functionality…
