Yes. There os also a commercial initiative by the author of VCV to have it as a VST im the DAW. The difference between the two are that Cardinal only accepts open source modules and is packaged with all of them, while the VCV official VST lets you download modules on the fly.

+1 for the VCV VST.

The fact that it's paid might be a turn off for some, but I've found it to be really useful, and it works really well inside of Ableton. Can't speak for other DAWs but having been using it for the past 6 months or so, it's been fantastic.

Does anyone know of good resources for folks who want to develop their own modules for VCV rack?

v2 doesn't have native Apple Silicon compatibility yet. Rumors are we will need to wait for the v3 release.

In terms of the dev resources:

1. Here is a basic official tutorial: https://vcvrack.com/manual/PluginDevelopmentTutorial

2. A pretty good video tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d670AFZKGnw
