How to contribute

If you want to contribute, the best way is to translate the project! We do that using Crowdin, a platform for just what we want - translations! You can also add new blocks, items, entities (-AI) or world generation-related things by forking the repo and creating a pull request. NOTE: Adding blocks and items doesn’t require much programming knowledge — just a bit of tedious work to get it done.
