+ The `config` section and fields are required and defined as follow:
+- **name**: name of the plugin
+- **binary_type**: can be either `local` or `remote`.  The type affects the **binary** field
+- **binary**:
+  - if **binary_type** is `local`, then this should be the filename of the plugin `aar` file in the `res://android/plugins` directory (e.g: `MyPlugin.aar`).
+  - if **binary_type** is `remote`, then this should be a declaration for a remote gradle binary (e.g: "org.godot.example:my-plugin:0.0.0").
+
+The `dependencies` section and fields are optional and defined as follow:
+- **local**: contains a list of local `.aar` binary files the plugin depends on. The local binary dependencies must also be located in the `res://android/plugins` directory.
+- **remote**: contains a list of remote binary gradle dependencies for the plugin.
+- **custom_maven_repos**: contains a list of urls specifying custom maven repos required for the plugin's dependencies.
