# Objective - Some members of `bevy_dynamic_plugin` are not documented. - Part of #3492. ## Solution - Add documentation to members missing it in `bevy_dynamic_plugin`. - Update existing documentation for clarity and formatting. --- ## Changelog - Completely document `bevy_dynamic_plugin`. --------- Co-authored-by: Alice Cecile <alice.i.cecile@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: James Liu <contact@jamessliu.com>
