# Let's begin...
I created ScriptCraft to make it easier for children (and anyone curious about programming) to create their own Minecraft Mods. ScriptCraft makes it easier for new programmers to create Minecraft mods. Mods are written using the Javascript programming language and once the ScriptCraft mod is installed, you can add your own new Mods by adding Javascript (.js) files in a directory.
* If you're new to programming and want to start modding Minecraft, then [Start Here][ypgpm].
* If you've already used [Scratch][scr], have attended a few [CoderDojo][cd] sessions, or have already dabbled with Javascript, then [Start Here][cda].
# Additional Resources
CoderDojo Athenry have some [excellent tutorials][cda] for younger programmers who have used [Scratch][scr] and are interested in Modding Minecraft using Javascript.
In particular, they have an excellent [Scratch - to - Javascript][sj] tutorial which explains Scratch programs and how to do the same thing in Javascript.
I highly recommend the series of tutorials provided by CoderDojo Athenry.
Developer Chris Cacciatore has created some interesting tools using Scriptcraft...
