Summary: This articles covers how to write a plugin that shows on the portal page. A portal plugin always gives a short overview on a piece of information (the so-called 'tile'). It can link a longer view that is opened when the tile is clicked, this we call the side pop-up. The side pop-up is optional.
The simplest portal plugin: An advertisement
