 How to add custom OpenMDAO modules to FAST-OAD as a plugin
 ##########################################################
 
-Once you have created your custom modules for FAST-OAD (see :ref:`add-modules`),
+Once you have :ref:`created your custom modules <add-modules>` for FAST-OAD,
 you may want to share them with other users, which can be done in two ways:
 
     - Providing your code so they can copy it on their computer and have them set their
       :code:`custom_modules` field accordingly in their :ref:`configuration-file`.
     - Packaging your code as a FAST-OAD plugin and have them install it through :code:`pip`
-      or equivalent.
+      or equivalent. This is the subject of current chapter.
 
-To declare your custom modules as a FAST-OAD plugin, you have to package them the usual way
-and declare them as a plugin with :code:`fastoad_model` as plugin group name.
+A FAST-OAD plugin can provide additional FAST-OAD modules, Jupyter notebooks and configuration files:
+
+    - plugin-provided FAST-OAD modules are usable in :ref:`configuration files <configuration-file>`,
+      and can be :ref:`listed<get-module-list>` and :ref:`used<configuration-file-problem-definition>`
+      in the same way as native modules.
+    - Command line can be used by users to retrieve :ref:`notebooks<python-usage>` and
+      :ref:`configuration files<generate-conf-file>`.
+
+Plugin structure
+################
+In your source folder, a typical plugin structure would be like this::
+
+    my_package/
+    ├── __init__.py
+    ├── configurations/
+    │   ├── __init__.py
+    │   ├── configuration_1.yaml
+    │   └── configuration_2.yaml
+    ├── models/
+    │   ├── __init__.py
+    │   ├── my_model.py
+    │   └── some_subpackage/
+    │       ├── __init__.py
+    │       └── some_more_code.py
+    └── notebooks/
+        ├── __init__.py
+        ├── any_data/
+        │   ├── __init__.py
+        │   └── some_data.xml
+        ├── awesome_notebook.ipynb
+        └── good_notebook.ipynb
+
+As shown above, the expected structure is composed of Python **packages**, i.e. every folder should
+contain a :code:`__init__.py` file, **even if it contains only non-Python files** (e.g. data for notebooks).
+
+The root folder can be anywhere in your project structure, since plugin declaration will point to
+its location.
+
+Expected folders in a plugin package are:
+
+    - :code:`models`: contains Python code where FAST-OAD modules are :ref:`registered<add-modules>`.
+    - :code:`configurations`: contains only configuration files in YAML format. No sub-folder is
+      allowed. These configuration files will be usable through :ref:`command line<generate-conf-file>`
+      or API method :meth:`~fastoad.cmd.api.generate_configuration_file`.
+    - :code:`notebooks`: contains any number of Jupyter notebooks and associated data, that will
+      be made available to users through :ref:`command line<python-usage>`.
+
+Any of these folders is optional. Any other folder will be ignored.
+
+
+Plugin packaging
+################
+
+To declare your package as a FAST-OAD plugin, you have to package it the usual way
+and declare it as a plugin with :code:`fastoad.plugins` as plugin group name.
+
+This page proposes a brief tutorial using `Poetry <https://python-poetry.org>`_.
+
+.. note::
+
+    If you prefer `setuptools <https://packaging.python.org/guides/creating-and-discovering-plugins/#using-package-metadata>`_, you may want to look at
+    the `Python tutorial for packaging projects <https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/tutorials/packaging-projects>`_.
+    The plugin declaration is demonstrated
+    `here <https://packaging.python.org/guides/creating-and-discovering-plugins/#using-package-metadata>`_.
 
-This can be done classically with `setuptools <https://packaging.python.org/guides/creating-and-discovering-plugins/#using-package-metadata>`_.
