Video Guide

Step 1: Create the Addon

Skip to step 2 if you already have an addon

When you first start-up bedrockR, you will probably get a screen like this.

launch page From here, click on the "Addons" tab, and create a new addon. Then, this window will show up.

From here, enter infomation about your mod.

Addon Name - The name of the addon

Addon Prefix - The prefix of your addon, this is what will show up before your items, blocks, and everything else. For example, "my_mod:my_super_good_item"

Addon Description - Description of your addon, this shows up when adding the resource/behaviour pack in Minecraft

Minimum Engine Version - This specifys the lowest supported version of the game that it supports. Unless you have a reason, you should probably set it to the current version of the gamme.

After adding those, change the icon, then create the mod.

Optional Step 1.5: Enable MC Sync for Debugging

When you create your addon, it will ask to enable Minecraft Sync. Minecraft sync will automatically copy your addon files to Minecraft, so you can easily update your mod and test it just by reloading your world. It will also ask to enable it every time you open your addon.
