+# HTML Legend
+
+This example shows how to create a custom HTML legend using a plugin and connect it to the chart in lieu of the default on-canvas legend.
+
+<div id="legend-container"></div>
+
+```js chart-editor
+// <block:plugin:0>
+const getOrCreateLegendList = (chart, id) => {
+  const legendContainer = document.getElementById(id);
+  let listContainer = legendContainer.querySelector('ul');
+
+  if (!listContainer) {
+    listContainer = document.createElement('ul');
+    listContainer.style.display = 'flex';
+    listContainer.style.flexDirection = 'row';
+    listContainer.style.margin = 0;
+    listContainer.style.padding = 0;
+
+    legendContainer.appendChild(listContainer);
+  }
+
+  return listContainer;
+};
+
+const htmlLegendPlugin = {
+  id: 'htmlLegend',
+  afterUpdate(chart, args, options) {
+    const ul = getOrCreateLegendList(chart, options.containerID);
+
+    // Remove old legend items
+    while (ul.firstChild) {
+      ul.firstChild.remove();
+    }
+
+    // Reuse the built-in legendItems generator
