# Build a plugin
|
|
|
|
For more information on the types of plugins you can build, refer to the [Plugin Overview]({{< relref "../../administration/plugin-management/" >}}).
|
|
|
|
## Get started
|
|
|
|
The easiest way to start developing Grafana plugins is to use the Grafana [create-plugin tool](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@grafana/create-plugin).
|
|
|
|
Open the terminal, and run the following command in your [plugin directory]({{< relref "../../setup-grafana/configure-grafana/#plugins" >}}):
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
npx @grafana/create-plugin
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Follow the questions and you will have a starter plugin ready to develop.
|
