Procedural Hdr Lighting
install is as usual... download the file, go to blender preferences/ add-ons / install... choose the file.
You can find the addon in the environment properties tab:
In the top menu, choose Sky settings or Studio settings.
Set your viewport shading to rendering (4th ball). Choose Eevee or Cycles button.
Customise the parameters , try the presets.
SKY:
Saturation is controlling environment color saturation only, not objects shading
Override replace the background procedural environment visibility by flat color without affecting lighting
Sun spin controls sun orientation
Sun Bend controls its sky position, up and down
Power is for lighting power and color is for... sun color
Sky is mapped with a gradient you can customize
Floor level push every colors up or down. Very cool to create lighting variations from unique setting (try it!)
Clouds are pretty basics but very important for reflection variations. It change a lot from clear sky to high cloud density.
Alpha is cloud transparency
Density is cloud dentisty
Motion can be animated for cloud motion but cool to try different still cloud aspects

STUDIO:
Power is Master power, controls everything.
Floor mask is for Eevee Only. Eevee hdr lighting don't cast direct shadows so, if a light is under the floor, it create impossible lighting. this option block every lighting from under the floor level
