# Dash Documentation

Dash is a world building ecosystem for Unreal Engine 5. It features a vast array of tools that cover the smallest to most complex tasks. Just to name a few:

* Content Browser: Browse assets from any project, Megascans, Polyhaven, and much more.
* Scatter: A suite of tools that help you scatter along curves, on a surface, decals, etc...
* Physics: Intuitive physics tool to paint objects or drop objects.
* Image Board: Familiar with Pureref and Miro? You're going to love this.
* Channel packing, vines, blend material, pivot tools, color grading, asset export, etc...

{% hint style="info" %}
Dash is an Editor-only tool, meaning you can’t keyframe its properties in Sequencer, neither can you adjust it in-game.

## AI Assistant

We natively ship an AI assistant in Dash that'll help you with most pressing questions. It feeds on this documentation + hundreds of questions/answers from our Discord, which means that if you've got an issue, chances are we've got you covered.\
It's fast, quite good, and our community + support is just one click away if you'd rather speak to a human :innocent:
