title: Scene Render Script

The title is a bit too generic, as pretty much any script that renders any blend file can be called "scene render script".

It's nice to have a link to your github repo here. I think it'll be better to do that in the form of diverting bug reports there, something like:

{{< hint >}}
This is a community-made job type. It may not reflect the same design as the
rest of Flamenco, as it was made for a specific person to solve a specific need.
{{< /hint >}}
This job type extends the built-in Simple Blender Render to allow for scene selection.

Please make the built-in Simple Blender Render a link to the actual built-in script.

Please make `the built-in Simple Blender Render` a link to the actual built-in script.
This is useful if you wish to queue up multiple renders of different scenes from the
same blend file.
## Usage
1. Download [scene_render.js](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/madebycounter/flamenco-scene-render/main/scene_render.js)
2. Copy `scene_render.js` to the scripts folder in your Flamenco manager installation (or create it if it doesn't exist).

scripts should be in backticks here, as it refers to a literal directory name, and is not a general description.

Blender has no "plugins", but "add-ons".

Quote the word "scene" and capitalise it, to make it clearer that this is the actual name of the setting, and not a general description.

to meet needs

This is too vague, as you wouldn't know what those needs are until you know what the setting does. Does this give you a drop-down of the scenes in the current file? Do you need to enter the name yourself?
