The Young Person's Guide to Programming in Minecraft

Introduction Minecraft is an open-ended 3D game where you can build and craft anything you like. Minecraft can be extended and enhanced using 'Mods' (short for 'modifications') - additional bits of code that are added to the Game. ScriptCraft is one such Mod - it lets you program in Javacript right within the game, making it possible to ... Build using simple javascript statements. Extend the game in other interesting ways - add new Items, change the game behaviour and create mini-games. Minecraft can be played in single-player or multi-player mode (with friends). Most people play Minecraft in Multi-player mode where players connect to a Minecraft Server on the internet or locally (running on the player's computer).
