ImageJ

Template:UpdateSitesAn update site is web space used by the Updater which enables users to share their macros, scripts and plugins with other researchers. With update sites, you do not need to manually download and install anything; ImageJ takes care of it for you.

Following an update site

The Fiji distribution of ImageJ ships with both the ImageJ and Fiji sites enabled. You can transform your ImageJ installation into a Fiji one simply by enabling the Fiji update site.

Out of the box, ImageJ has only the core ImageJ update site enabled. To enable additional features, choose Help ▶ Update..., then click the "Manage update sites" button.

For further details, see How to follow a 3rd party update site.

Creating your own update site

Anyone can share their extensions (plugins, scripts, etc.) by creating their own update site. You can use ImageJ's personal update site service (hosted on the ImageJ web server), or host it on your own server.
