-# Title
-Welcome to the graphiql plugin!
+# @backstage/plugin-graphiql
 
-## Sub-section 1
+This plugin integrates [GraphiQL](https://github.com/graphql/graphiql) as a tool to browse GraphiQL endpoints inside Backstage.
 
-## Sub-section 2
+The purpose of the plugin is to provide a convenient way for developers to try out GraphQL queries in their own environemnt.
+By exposing GraphiQL as a plugin instead of a standalone app, it's possible to provide a preconfigured environment for engineers, and also tie into authentication providers already inside Backstage.
+
+## Getting Started
+
+### Installing the plugin
+
+Start out by installing the plugin in your Backstage app:
+
+```bash
+yarn add @backstage/plugin-graphiql
+```
+
+Then add an entry to your App's `plugins.ts` to import the plugin.
+
+The plugin registers a `/graphiql` route, which you can link to from the Sidebar if desired.
+
+### Adding GraphQL endpoints
+
+For the plugin to function, you need to supply GraphQL endpoints through the GraphQLBrowse API, which is done by implementing the `GraphQLBrowseApi` exported by this plugin.
+
+If all you need is a static list of endpoints, the plugin exports a `GraphQLEndpoints` class that implements the `GraphQLBrowseApi` for you. Here's and example of how you could expose two GraphQL endpoints in your App:
+
+```tsx
+import {
+  graphQlBrowseApiRef,
+  GraphQLEndpoints,
+} from '@backstage/plugin-graphiql';
+
+// Implement the Graph QL browse API using a static list of endpoints
+const graphQlBrowseApi = GraphQLEndpoints.from([
+  // Use the .create function if all you need is a static URL and headers.
+  GraphQLEndpoints.create({
+    id: 'gitlab',
+    title: 'GitLab',
+    url: 'https://gitlab.com/api/graphql',
+    // Optional extra headers
+    headers: { Extra: 'Header' },
+  }),
+  {
+    id: 'hooli-search',
+    title: 'Hooli Search',
+    // Custom fetch function, this one is equivalent to using GraphQLEndpoints.create()
+    // with url set to https://internal.hooli.com/search
+    fetcher: async (params: any) => {
+      return fetch('https://internal.hooli.com/search', {
+        method: 'POST',
+        headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
+        body: JSON.stringify(params),
+      }).then(res => res.json());
+    },
+  },
+]);
+
+// ApiRegistry builder created somewhere in your App
+const builder = ApiRegistry.builder();
+
+// Add the instance to the API registry
+builder.add(graphQlBrowseApiRef, graphQlBrowseApi);
+```
