Introduction

#Welcome

Minetest uses Lua scripts to provide modding support. This online book aims to teach you how to create your own mods, starting from the basics.

#What you will need

• A Code Editor. Talked about in the Lua Scripts chapter.
• A copy of Minetest in the 0.4 series. (eg: 0.4.13)
• The ability to work independently, without pestering other developers to write your code for you.
• Motivation to keep trying when things go wrong.

#So, go on then.

Start reading. Use the navigation bar on the left (or on the top on mobiles) to open a chapter.
