The Item type allows you to access and modify the items in Paper.js projects. Its functionality is inherited by different project item types such as [Path](<https://apiref.notion.site/Path-502d732ae57e47bab1e0f48a019ba15b>), [CompoundPath](<https://apiref.notion.site/CompoundPath-bbe1975c92cb43ec958f28d9f9e5664d>), [Group](<https://apiref.notion.site/Group-6c7ad79b02ad4a919a7f48608ab2616c>), [Layer](https://apiref.notion.site/Layer-31555f476e594a29a53a189452cb87a4) and [Raster](<https://apiref.notion.site/Raster-c84f0e76da614d28842a4ea462e3bdd0>). They each add a layer of functionality that is unique to their type, but share the underlying properties and functions that they inherit from Item.
