This guide works with JetBrains' IntelliJ IDEA Community Edition.

There are two main ways to use template, choose the one that fits you best

1. First Method
   • Click on the Code button here, then click "Download ZIP" or download it directly from here.
   • Extract the folder from the ZIP folder and open the project in IntelliJ IDEA
2. Second Method
   • Click on the Use this template button here or follow this link.
   • Create your own project.
   • In IntelliJ IDEA open the project by copying your repository's URL, clicking Get from VCS, paste the URL and click Clone.

When you opened the project replace the mod's name - ForgeTemplate, the mod id - forgetemplate and the mod version - 1.0 in the gradle.properties file and in the main mod class.

You need to have a Java 17 JDK installed, then just execute the commands ./gradlew to update dependencies and ./gradlew build to generate a .jar file in build/libs.
