 The Kibana Core APIs for server-side plugins.
 
+A plugin requires a `kibana.json` file at it's root directory that follows [the manfiest schema](./kibana-plugin-server.pluginmanifest.md) to define static plugin information required to load the plugin.
+
 A plugin's `server/index` file must contain a named import, `plugin`<!-- -->, that implements [PluginInitializer](./kibana-plugin-server.plugininitializer.md) which returns an object that implements [Plugin](./kibana-plugin-server.plugin.md)<!-- -->.
 
 The plugin integrates with the core system via lifecycle events: `setup`<!-- -->, `start`<!-- -->, and `stop`<!-- -->. In each lifecycle method, the plugin will receive the corresponding core services available (either [CoreSetup](./kibana-plugin-server.coresetup.md) or [CoreStart](./kibana-plugin-server.corestart.md)<!-- -->) and any interfaces returned by dependency plugins' lifecycle method. Anything returned by the plugin's lifecycle method will be exposed to downstream dependencies when their corresponding lifecycle methods are invoked.
