Abstract
This chapter is supplemental to the previous chapter, further expanding on the Python knowledge, but this time covering how Python integrates with Autodesk Maya and how we can use it in our workflow. The chapter details how we can use the built-in tools for Maya to run or save Python scripts for later use, as well as details how the CMDS Python module operates so we can create, modify, or even create our own user interfaces for Maya with Python.
