Currently, deployment project must be linked to a build plan. This is ideal for projects that require code compilation and packaging, however, not all cases require code compilation.

For example, ASP.NET websites are just files that are copied over to the server. Although we can create a build plan and artifact for the website files, it is not ideal because our websites are over 1GB, while all we need is code checkout which is automatically cached at Git level, then deploy delta changes.

Definitely, I can easily workaround this by creating a dummy build plan that does nothing, then link it to the deployment projects – which is what I'm currently doing. But just thought standalone deployment project would be a great addition to Bamboo.
