+# Main Screen Plugin Demo
+
+This plugin demo shows how to make a main screen plugin.
+The main screen appears as a button next to the "2D", "3D", "Script", and
+"AssetLib" buttons. It also shows up when a Node it `handles` is selected.
+
+For more information, see this documentation article:
+https://docs.godotengine.org/en/latest/tutorials/plugins/editor/making_main_screen_plugins.html
+
+If you would like to see a more complete example of what main screen plugins
+are capable of, check out the [2.5D demo project](../../../misc/2.5d).
