+C# global classes
+=================
+
+Global classes (also known as named scripts) are types registered in Godot's editor so they can be used
+more conveniently. These classes show up in the *Add Node* and *Create Resource* dialogs,
+and :ref:`exported properties <doc_c_sharp_exports>` are restricted to instances of the global class or derived classes.
+Global classes are registered with the ``[GlobalClass]`` attribute.
+
+.. code-block:: csharp
+
+    using Godot;
+
+    [GlobalClass]
+    public partial class MyNode : Node
+    {
+    }
+
+The ``MyNode`` type will be registered as a global class with the same name as the type's name.
+
+.. image:: img/globalclasses_addnode.webp
+
+The ``[Icon]`` attribute also allows to provide the path to an icon so it can
+be used as the class' icon in the editor.
+
+.. code-block:: csharp
+
+    using Godot;
+
+    [GlobalClass, Icon("res://Stats/StatsIcon.svg")]
+    public partial class Stats : Resource
+    {
+        [Export]
+        public int Strength { get; set; }

+
+The ``Stats`` class is a custom resource registered as a global class. :ref:`Exporting properties <doc_c_sharp_exports>` of the
+type ``Stats`` will only allow instances of this resource type to be assigned, and the inspector
+will let you create and load instances of this type easily.
