# 3D Bazaar (Library)

[3D Bazaar](https://lindale.io/3dbazaar) is an extension bundled with Skatter that allows you to manage and import your local asset library. It also gives gives you access to an extensive marketplace of high-quality render-ready assets.

## Importing Skatter-ready assets from the marketplace

The marketplace contains hundreds of plants, both free and paid, that can be used with Skatter. Many of these assets are already pre-configured to be imported as Skatter compositions.

In the marketplace, click on the *Skatter Contents* category to access all the Skatter-ready assets. These are pre-configured to be imported directly as Skatter compositions, so that you don't have anything to configure (unless you want to tweak the distribution).

When importing a Skatter-ready asset from 3D Bazaar, you will need to select the appropriate file type:

Any other object can be used in Skatter, but you will have to create the compositions yourself.
{% endhint %}

## Importing Skatter compositions from the local library

Compositions exported via the Compositions Manager (*.skatter* files) are recognized and listed by 3D Bazaar.\
You can import them directly, provided that Skatter is installed and enabled.
