| - | What is LiteLoader | + | ====Getting Started with LiteLoader==== |
| - | ================== | + | |
| - | LiteLoader is a lightweight bootstrap designed to give base-clean Minecraft mods a way of hooking into the game without having to use one of the more heavyweight mod API's. Sometimes "all you need is a tick", and this is what LiteLoader is for. If you want to add new blocks, new items, and new mechanics to the game then this isn't for you and you should definitely check out [Minecraft Forge](http://www.minecraftforge.net/) instead. | + | Getting started with LiteLoader is quite straightforward, if you are an experienced modder comfortable with using SVN, Eclipse, and setting up multiple projects then you can check out the [[dev:quickstart|Quick Start Guide - for advanced users]], or for a more in-depth tutorial follow the [[dev:tutorial|Tutorial]] which covers each of the steps in the Quick Start Guide in more detail. |
| - | Despite its lightweight feature-set, LiteLoader puts a lot of power in your hands in a surprisingly easy manner and if you don't need the features of Forge and just want to modify the Minecraft client in some way, then this loader is probably perfect for you. | + | Developer Reference |
