Thank you for your help, that makes sense. (ps. I tried marking it as the official answer but don't see a green checkbox anywhere beside the answer so I'm not sure how to do it).

If you're the one who posted the original question, you're not logged in with the same user, that's the reason you can't mark it. :)

<p>I am running a local install of Craft 3 Pro dev preview using MAMP and Sequel Pro on my iMac.  I downloaded the Commerce plugin to try it out and dropped the 'commerce' folder into my <code>craft/plugins</code> folder.  When I visit the admin control panel and click on plugins, I can't see the Commerce folder/plugin I just added. Any suggestions as to why?</p>

The whole plugin API has gotten an overhaul in Craft 3, so all plugins needs to be rewritten/updated to work with Craft 3.

Craft Commerce hasn't been updated yet. If it had there would be separate versions for Craft 2 and 3 for download.
