 ## Examples
 
+### <a name="annotation"></a> Create annotations (--annotation)
+
+```text
+--annotation="key=value"
+--annotation="[type:]key=value"
+```
+
+Add OCI annotations to the image index, manifest, or descriptor.
+The following example adds the `foo=bar` annotation to the image manifests:
+
+```console
+$ docker buildx build -t TAG --annotation "foo=bar" --push .
+```
+
+You can optionally add a type prefix to specify the level of the annotation. By
+default, the image manifest is annotated. The following example adds the
+`foo=bar` annotation the image index instead of the manifests:
+
+```console
+$ docker buildx build -t TAG --annotation "index:foo=bar" --push .
+```
+
+You can specify multiple types, separated by a comma (,) to add the annotation
+to multiple image components. The following example adds the `foo=bar`
+annotation to image index, descriptors, manifests:
+
+```console
+$ docker buildx build -t TAG --annotation "index,manifest,manifest-descriptor:foo=bar" --push .
+```
+
+You can also specify a platform qualifier in square brackets (`[os/arch]`) in
+the type prefix, to apply the annotation to a subset of manifests with the
+matching platform. The following example adds the `foo=bar` annotation only to
+the manifest with the `linux/amd64` platform:
+
+```console
+$ docker buildx build -t TAG --annotation "manifest[linux/amd64]:foo=bar" --push .
+```
+
+Wildcards are not supported in the platform qualifier; you can't specify a type
+prefix like `manifest[linux/*]` to add annotations only to manifests which has
+`linux` as the OS platform.
+
+For more information about annotations, see
+[Annotations](https://docs.docker.com/build/building/annotations/).
