# ContentBuildInterface > Low level interface for building content for Unity. ## Definition * **Type:** Class * **Namespace:** [UnityEditor.Build.Content](/engine/6000.6/script-reference/unityeditor/build/content.md) * **Assembly:** UnityEditor.CoreModule ```csharp public static class ContentBuildInterface ``` ## Remarks Note: this class and its members exist to provide low-level support for the **Scriptable Build Pipeline** package. This is intended for internal use only; use the [Scriptable Build Pipeline package](https://docs.unity3d.com/Packages/com.unity.scriptablebuildpipeline@latest/index.html) to implement a fully featured build pipeline. You can install this via the [Package Manager window](/engine/6000.6/manual/packages-list/upm-ui-window/upm-ui.md). ## Static Methods | Method | Description | | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | [ArchiveAndCompress](/engine/6000.6/script-reference/unityeditor/build/content/contentbuildinterface/archiveandcompress.md) | Create a Unity archive file, containing the content of one or more resource files. | | [CalculateBuildUsageTags](/engine/6000.6/script-reference/unityeditor/build/content/contentbuildinterface/calculatebuildusagetags.md) | Calculates the build usage of a set of objects. | | [CalculatePlayerDependenciesForScene](/engine/6000.6/script-reference/unityeditor/build/content/contentbuildinterface/calculateplayerdependenciesforscene.md) | Calculates the Scene dependency information. | | [CalculatePlayerSerializationHashForType](/engine/6000.6/script-reference/unityeditor/build/content/contentbuildinterface/calculateplayerserializationhashfortype.md) | Returns a unique hash for a given type's serialized layout. | | [CombineExtractedTypeTreeDataFiles](/engine/6000.6/script-reference/unityeditor/build/content/contentbuildinterface/combineextractedtypetreedatafiles.md) | Combines multiple TypeTree archive files into a single archive.
