<h3 class="is-size-3">The Process</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Minetest is developed and maintained by a group of volunteers called
|
|
the <a href="https://github.com/minetest?tab=members">core team</a>,
|
|
consisting of a bunch of people who are trusted to keep Minetest
|
|
progressing in good condition.
|
|
The core team is formed of people who have made great
|
|
<a href="{{ '/credits/' | relative_url }}">contributions</a> to Minetest.
|
|
Contributions are approved if two members of the core team agree on them.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
All development and decisions are made in public, on
|
|
<a href="https://github.com/minetest">GitHub</a> and
|
|
<a href="https://wiki.minetest.net/IRC">Internet Relay Chat (IRC)</a>.
|
|
Meetings are occasionally held on IRC, with
|
|
<a href="https://dev.minetest.net/Meetings">plans and notes made public</a>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The core team is best contacted on
|
|
<a href="https://wiki.minetest.net/IRC">IRC</a> at
|
|
<code>#minetest-dev @ chat.freenode.net</code>.
|

|
<h3 class="is-size-3">Project Structure</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Minetest is distributed as an engine, combined with a couple of games.
|
|
Upstream repositories can be found at
|
|
<a href="https://github.com/minetest/">https://github.com/minetest/</a>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<strong>The engine</strong> (core) is the base for everything.
|
|
C++ is used for housekeeping and performance-critical stuff,
|
|
Lua for extensible things.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<strong>Games</strong> define game content: nodes, entities,
|
|
textures, meshes, sounds and custom behavior implemented in Lua.
|
|
Games consist of mods that plug into the engine using the
|
|
<a href="https://dev.minetest.net">Modding API</a>.
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|

|
|

<h3 class="is-size-3">Roadmaps and Future Plans</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
As an open source project developed by volunteers, Minetest is
|
|
iteratively developed rather than formally planned. You can gain an idea
|
|
of the direction by looking into the following resources:
