## A programming language for datapacks!
Use a programming language built ontop of Minecrafts functions to add new expressions, generators and simplify development.
# Get Started!
Start programming with mcscript today with the help of my video course:
---
### Variables
Variables can store numbers, output these and perform operations. Minecraft Script now brings them to Minecraft Vanilla.
```js
var var1;
var var2 = 5;
var1 = 10;
var2 += 5;
var1 += var2;
```
### Loops
Have you ever had something that repeats itself over and over again? This is called a loop and is now also available in Minecraft!
```js
for(1,5){
log($(i))
}
while('entity @s[tag=loop]'){
}
```
### Conditions And If-Statements
Simply summarize If conditions and name multiple conditions. Everything is controlled by mcscript!
```js
if("entity @s"){
/say entity found
}
// else statement
if("entity @s"){
/say entity found
} else {
/say elsewhise command
}
```
### Clever File Handling
Generate unlimited new files, merge files or use everything together in a loop. There are no limits in creativity except the space of your computer.
```
#file: file1
#this is file 1
#file: file2
#this is file 2
```
## Installation
The installation requires the Node.js environment and the Node Package Manager.
This is achieved the best way by using the installer: nodejs.org/en/download/
Install the mcscript-cli with:
```bash
npm install -g mcscript
```
If a successful answer apears you have done everything right and can start.
