• Add the plugin as a module to config/web.php.

    'modules' => [
        ...
        'albums' => [
            'class' => 'maerduq\usmAlbums\AlbumsModule',
            (here some optional plugin configuration, see below for options)
        ],

• Add the albums module as USM plugin in config/web.php.
