StandalonePluginScripts and UserPlugin should be documented

Bug Reports Documentation Issues
#1

I would like to request documentation for the StandalonePluginScripts object added in release 408 and the UserPlugin data model.
A brief description of StandalonePluginScripts is provided in studio as a hint in Advanced Objects, whoever I find that this is insufficient for using the object. I was not able to find this documentation in the Developer Hub. UserPlugin is mentioned but not described.

  • Which scripts run first?
  • What order do these scripts run?
  • Can they communicate?
  • What can these scripts access?
  • What is the intended use cases?

I’ve provided a very surface level description of StandalonePluginScripts for now. This is probably needing a larger scale guide on what a “Standalone Plugin” is, but I have to confirm with the team that a topic like that is something we can prioritize right now. On the outside it seems very fringe and not something a lot of plugin developers particularly need, as it was created for internal studio plugins. I’ve created a ticket for this to be addressed sometime in the future.
