README.md Docs

~1 min read vr1.2 Fabric

Overview #

README.md is a complete overhaul of Minecraft's book system, turning books into powerful interactive documentation tools.

Written books in Minecraft are text dumps. README.md transforms them into a powerful, interactive documentation tool — Markdown rendering, theming, libraries, search, and export — for documentation, education, storytelling, and developer content.

Quick start #

  1. Install the mod for your Minecraft version.
  2. Write Markdown into a book using the editor.
  3. Preview rendered output and organise into a library.
  4. Export or sync books as needed.

Frequently asked questions #

Can I read normal books?
Yes — existing books remain readable and upgradeable.
Is it client or server side?
Multiplayer sync makes it valuable on both.
Which versions?
1.21 through 1.21.11.
