I'm full-time developer for Autodesk products especially for Inventor. I have made dozens of add-ins. But I use almost default add-in template (just modified post-build events).
For Inventor add-ins I have made my own shared library (.dll file) with basic functionality for Inventor add-ins. This library contains tens of objects and thousands lines of code. When I start work on new add-in, I just add this library to the References like Inventor.Interop, stdole, etc.
It is better solution then copy source code to each project individually.
You can store source code in one place and if you want to update something, create new version of this library and just replace the reference in the add-in project.
