# Installing custom scripts

## Introduction

Patchworks provides a range of **scripts**  for you to install and use as-is, or take as a starting point for developing your own needs.  

## The steps

**Step 1**\
[Access custom scripts](https://doc.wearepatchworks.com/product-documentation/developer-hub/custom-scripting/accessing-custom-scripts) and move to the lower **marketplace** panel.

{% hint style="info" %}
Scripts located in the marketplace panel here are the same as you'll find in our main [marketplace](https://doc.wearepatchworks.com/product-documentation/marketplace/marketplace-scripts).
{% endhint %}

**Step 2**\
Click the **install** button associated with the script that you want to use - for example:

<div align="left"><figure><img src="https://2440044887-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FLYNcUBVQwSkOMG6KjZfz%2Fuploads%2FkC1rwFWgaNcLkExagXe8%2Finstall%20script%201.png?alt=media&#x26;token=4ac15a4b-9574-4034-be3f-cb58d318065a" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div>

**Step 3**\
The script is installed and added to the upper **installed** section:

As part of the installation procedure, the script is deployed. This means that it's ready for use straight away.

You can now use the script as-is, or [make your own changes and deploy the script again](https://doc.wearepatchworks.com/product-documentation/developer-hub/custom-scripting/creating-and-testing-custom-scripts) once it's ready.
