+Using sub-plugins
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Often a plugin adds multiple things, for example a custom node and a panel.
+In those cases it might be easier to have a separate plugin script for each of those features.
+Sub-plugins can be used for this.
+
+First create all plugins and sub plugins as normal plugins:
+
+.. image:: img/sub_plugin_creation.webp
+
+Then move the sub plugins into the main plugin folder:
+
+.. image:: img/sub_plugin_moved.webp
+
+Godot will hide sub-plugins from the plugin list, so that a user can't enable or disable them.
+Instead the main plugin script should enable and disable sub-plugins like this:
+
+.. tabs::
+ .. code-tab:: gdscript GDScript
+
+    @tool
+    extends EditorPlugin
+
+    # The main plugin is located at res://addons/my_plugin/
