MonkeyBread Software is a provider of plugins and development services for FileMaker and Xojo. Its core products include MBS FileMaker Plugin and MBS Xojo Plugins: the former adds more than 7,800 functions to FileMaker, while the latter adds more than 85,000 functions to Xojo. The site also provides macOS and Win/Linux download packages, indicating that its plugins are designed for cross-platform development scenarios.
In terms of features and use cases, MBS is best understood as a “capability extension layer” for FileMaker/Xojo developers: it expands the native platforms through a large number of plugin functions, with examples or video content around areas such as PDF, SFTP, Regex, graphics, and file import. Its services page also shows that it offers custom application development, custom Xojo/FileMaker plugins, FileMaker scripts, Xojo training, website scripting, software and hardware installation, macOS and Xojo troubleshooting, and support for migrating to macOS. Supported technologies include Xojo, C/C++/Objective-C, Visual Studio, gcc, Xcode, Perl, PHP, and AppleScript, with delivery platforms covering macOS, Windows, Linux, and iOS.
The reviewed content does not show official pricing, only a Price List entry, so specific licensing costs cannot be determined. The trial mechanism is relatively clear: users can request a trial license key, and all functions can also be tested in demo mode without a license. Trial keys are valid for several weeks and cannot be used for deployment. Applying for a trial requires submitting information such as name, address, and email, as well as agreeing to data storage and to being contacted about news/events.
The strengths are its large function library, strong focus on real extension needs for FileMaker and Xojo, and the fact that it sells not only plugins but also custom development and training services. Its blog, videos, DynaPDF Manual, and YouTube playlists are also useful for learning. The downsides are that its ecosystem is quite vertical and not suitable for general Web or cloud-native development teams. The collected content does not clarify open-source status, enterprise support SLA, payment methods, or official pricing, which makes procurement evaluation less transparent.
It is a good fit for individual developers, consultancies, and internal enterprise tool teams that use FileMaker/Claris FileMaker or Xojo over the long term, especially when they need to quickly fill capability gaps in the platform without building low-level extensions entirely in-house. The reviewed content does not provide information on access from mainland China, and payment methods are also unknown. If access or purchasing is restricted, alternatives include FileMaker official marketplace plugins, the Xojo third-party ecosystem, or building custom replacements with native C/C++/Objective-C as needed.
