Be Tools is a UI addon for Blender 2.8 and 2.9. The toolset groups common modeling functions into a context-sensitive, hot box style menus to speed up modeling workflows. The tool also docks a palette to the right of the 3D View for easy access to common tools and my own custom tools. Docugifs here: http://www.brucein3d.com/project/be-tools-for-blender
