Speedflow

Note on 2.8 version: 

Speedflow and companion are available on Blender 2.8 (alpha stage)! 

You can use them if you want, but it will be normal to experience bugs and issues since the add-ons are in alpha stage.

I post the addon only because people are asking, so, no need to report bugs and issues at this time.

Just use the addons and update them when the new version will be available ;)

SPEEDFLOW

Speedflow is a group of 9 modals who allows you to improve dramatically your workflow for modeling! With the addon, you can manage modifiers directly in the 3D view as simple and fast as possible. Select an object, launch a modal and add multiple modifiers on the fly, launch another modal, add others modifiers and make your modeling faster than if you had to create modifiers by yourself.  

What is a modal?

A modal is a mode where you can perform multiple actions. In Speedflow we created 9 modals and in each modal you can make different things like creating a modifier, change settings of this modifier, add subdivisions, move cursor, etc. Blender use modals for the Knife, the Bevel, etc, this is really powerful and we made 9 really powerful modals who help you to speed up your workflow on Blender. See the documentation and Speedflow home page for more information. http://www.pitiwazou.com/speedflow/   Let's see what each modal can do ;)
