# Project Plugins

Project Plugins allow users to share custom content. Users are able to create self-contained content plugins, iterate on them and publish them to users.

{% hint style="warning" %} <mark style="color:orange;">Project Plugins cannot reference content in any other project plugin or the project content. They must be self-contained or only dependent on engine content.</mark>
