# Use UWP plug-ins with IL2CPP

> Understand how to use managed and native plug-ins for UWP.

You can use plug-ins to call code created outside of Unity from your C# scripts. The plug-in model for Universal Windows Platform (UWP) is similar to other Unity-supported platforms. For more information about plug-ins with Unity, refer to [Plug-ins](/engine/6000.3/manual/scripting/compilation-and-code-reload/plug-ins.md).
