 Start out by installing the plugin in your Backstage app:
 
 ```bash
+cd packages/app
 yarn add @backstage/plugin-graphiql
 ```
 
-Then add an entry to your App's `plugins.ts` to import the plugin.
+```diff
+# in packages/app/src/plugins.ts
++export { plugin as GraphiQL } from '@backstage/plugin-graphiql';
+```
 
-The plugin registers a `/graphiql` route, which you can link to from the Sidebar if desired.
+```diff
+# in packages/app/src/App.tsx
++import { Router as GraphiQLRouter } from '@backstage/plugin-graphiql';
+
+ const AppRoutes = () => (
+   <Routes>
++    <Route path="/graphiql" element={<GraphiQLRouter />} />
+```
 
 ### 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.
