Currently, the documentation has few features and conveniences for beginners.
My idea consists of several, the goal of which is to help newcomers understand the world of Hytale modding.
- Improve Existing Content & Explain Starting Point -should-have
- Clarify the minimal steps a beginner should follow.
- Add a short note on what is the first thing to do to get started in Hytale modding.
- Skill Levels with Practical Goals - optional
- Beginner – essential steps to create the first mod. Should be clearly marked and come first.
- Intermediate – optional steps for creating a more complex mod. Can include additional methods, tips, and code examples. And also publishing.
- Advanced – optional steps for using advanced features. Marked as optional for experienced users.
- Callout: Prerequisites - optional
- Highlight key concepts or knowledge users should understand before starting.
- Examples: basic Java syntax, file structure of a Hytale mod, ECS basics.
- Increase Number of Methods & Examples - optional
- Expand the number of practical examples for beginners.
- Include more hands-on tasks, code snippets, or small exercises to follow along.
- Other ideas
- Short glossary explaining key terms used in modding.
- Video or GIF demonstrations for certain steps (setting up project, creating first mod, etc.)
- Optional callouts for tricky concepts or advanced tips.
