This plugin lets the user write a separate description for each post, page, front page or custom post type post which is added as a meta description to the html head.
The individual description for a post or page is typed and edited in a separate text field just below the text field for editing the post text.
You can also add meta description to category, tag and custom taxonomy archive as well as front page.
To add description to a category, go to Dashboard > Posts > Categories. Select a category in the table to the wright or create a new category. Type the description in the text field Description, Weather or not this description will be viewed for visitors on the site is up to each theme. The Easy WP Meta Description plugin will add the description as meta information in the html head.
Descriptions for tag and custom taxonomies are edited in similar fashion.
To edit a front page description you would go to Dashboard > Settings > General and edit Front page meta description. 
If you use a static page as Front page the static page Meta description will be used and Front page meta description at general setting will now show.
This plugin relies on the wp_head() action hook. It will only work if the theme uses it. Most themes do.
When deleted uninstall script runs which deletes all changes in the database perfomed by the plugin. 
If you dont want to delete your descriptions and other settings only deactivate and dont delete.

WordPress HTML allows you to add custom HTML to both the post/page BODY and the HEAD tags from the page editor.
When copying HTML into the WordPress editor it adds spurious tags which break various elements and corrupt the HTML. By saving the HTML in the custom fields dialogue the exact HTML will be output to your post/page.
Also if you have a single page which requires an extra javascript library or style sheet you normally have to add it through your themes php files. Updating the theme files can be a pain; we normally have to set up an exception for that individual page and load it there. As this information is not available when we are editing the actual pages in the WordPress editor it is quite obstructive.
With WordPress HTML, we can add the library or stylesheet directly to the post/page head without the need to change the theme files. And importantly, all from within the WordPress editor for that page.
Example libraries: 
jQuery, ChartJS, D3js, Highcharts, Prototype
