+## Generating Nuget Package 
+
+In the solution folder is a file named "PDT.EssentialsPluginTemplate.nuspec" 
+
+1. Rename the file to match your plugin solution name 
+2. Edit the file to include your project specifics including
+    1. <id>PepperDash.Essentials.Plugin.MakeModel</id> Convention is to use the prefix "PepperDash.Essentials.Plugin" and include the MakeModel of the device. 
+    2. <projectUrl>https://github.com/PepperDash/EssentialsPluginTemplate</projectUrl> Change to your url to the project repo
+
+There is no longer a requirement to adjust workflow files for nuget generation for private and public repositories.  This is now handled automatically in the workflow.
+
+__If you do not make these changes to the nuspec file, the project will not generate a nuget package__
