When asking questions, try to include the necessary context in your first message, and [do not ask to ask](https://dontasktoask.com/). State your problem, what you have already tried to solve it, and how those attempts failed. Make sure to avoid the [XY problem](https://xyproblem.info/) by not only asking for help for one specific part of a solution to your problem, but also stating the actual problem you are trying to solve. When debugging, include your `latest.log` and when your game crashes, a crash log. Additionally, full access to your source code can be really helpful, ideally uploaded to a website such as GitHub.

There are many topics in modding where you quickly will find yourself at a point where there are no tutorials to help. In those cases you'll usually either have to understand the relevant Minecraft code, or look at other mods and see how they got similar things done.

There are many topics in modding lacking relevant tutorials. In those cases you may have to read the relevant Minecraft code, or look at other mods and see how they implemented similar ideas, methods or solutions. Don't be afraid to ask for help with understanding how Minecraft's systems work!

If you want to look into the Minecraft source code, run the `genSourcesWithVineflower` Gradle task in the `fabric` category or open any Minecraft source file and click the download sources button in IntelliJ IDEA.
