Hi

Can you refer to this plugin development guide to check if all steps were covered ? [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/plugin-development.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/plugin-development.html)

There are several examples here: [Kibana plugin development | Skill matrix](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/kibana-plugin-development-skill-matrix/126877/6)

You can also look through the source code of the built-in plugins shipped with Kibana here: [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/tree/v7.0.1/x-pack/plugins](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/tree/v7.0.1/x-pack/plugins) or the source code for known plugins here: [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/7.0/known-plugins.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/7.0/known-plugins.html).  
Hope it helps  
Thanks  
Rashmi
