 Fork this repo when creating a new plugin for Essentials. For more information about plugins, refer to the Essentials Wiki [Plugins](https://github.com/PepperDash/Essentials/wiki/Plugins) article.
 
-This repo contains example classes for the three main categories of devices:
-* `EssentialsPluginTemplateDevice`: Used for most third party devices which require communication over a streaming mechanism such as a Com port, TCP/SSh/UDP socket, CEC, etc
-* `EssentialsPluginTemplateLogicDevice`:  Used for devices that contain logic, but don't require any communication with third parties outside the program
-* `EssentialsPluginTemplateCrestronDevice`:  Used for devices that represent a piece of Crestron hardware
-
-There are matching factory classes for each of the three categories of devices.  The `EssentialsPluginTemplateConfigObject` should be used as a template and modified for any of the categories of device.  Same goes for the `EssentialsPluginTemplateBridgeJoinMap`.
-
-This also illustrates how a plugin can contain multiple devices.

 To install dependencies once nuget.exe is installed, run the following command from the root directory of your repository:
 `nuget install .\packages.config -OutputDirectory .\packages -excludeVersion`.
-Alternatively, you can simply run the `GetPackages.bat` file.
 To verify that the packages installed correctly, open the plugin solution in your repo and make sure that all references are found, then try and build it.

-## 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__
