+### experimental_remote_packages
+
+Specially designed to allow custom pure Python packages, it is possible to
+specify a remote `.toml` or `.json` configuration file within the list of
+packages:
+
+```TOML title="Using the experimental_remote_packages flag in TOML."
+experimental_remote_packages = true
+packages = ['numpy', 'https://remote.host.com/my_package/v1/config.toml']
+```
+
+The remote config is basically a subset of any other PyScript config with the
+only exception that its `name` field must specify the package name, which will
+then be used to import such package via regular imports:
+
+```TOML title="A remote config example"
+name = "my_package"
+
+# a remote config can include packages, even remote ones
+packages = ['matplotlib']
+
+# files are resolved relatively to this config URL
+[files]
+"./__init__.py" = ""
+"./sub/module.py" = ""
+"./main.py" = ""
+```
+
+The bootstrap will take care of fetching and preparing the remote package so
+that all the code will need to do is: `from my_package import util`.
