Quick start guide

Introduction to the folder structure

Build files:

File	Description
build.gradle	Configures the compilation process.
gradle.properties	Contains properties for Minecraft, fabric, and your mod.
settings.gradle	Configures the plugin repositories.

Fabric files:

These files are located at src/main/resources.

File	Description	Additional information
fabric.mod.json	Contains metadata about your mod.	wiki:fabric_mod_json_spec
modid.mixins.json	Contains a list of all your mixin files.	wiki:mixin_registration
assets/modid/icon.png	The icon of your mod.	wiki:fabric_mod_json_spec#icon

Creating your mod

First of you must replace all occurrences of modid with the id of your mod.

If your mod doesn't use mixins you can safely remove the mixin entry in your fabric.mod.json as well as delete any *.mixin.json files.

This template has the legacy fabric api included in it's build script, more info about the api can be found at it's github repo. If you know what you are doing you can also safely remove the api from the build script as it isn't required.

Useful gradle commands

# Compile your mod
./gradlew build

# Remove old build files
./gradlew clean

# Generate Minecraft sources
./gradlew genSources

# Launch a modded Minecraft client
./gradlew runClient

# Kill gradle if it's doing stupid things
./gradlew --stop
