This page gives a little overview about the Stendhal code.

== Development Environment ==

Stendhal is completely open source. So you can [http://arianne.sourceforge.net/download/stendhal-src.tar.gz download the source code] and have a look. If you plan to modify it and contribute to the project, we suggest that you use the Eclipse IDE and checkout the latest development state from our version control system.

There are good [[Configure a development environment (IDE)|tutorials]] to get you started with Eclipse.

The next step is to find your way around the code. The Stendhal code base is roughly divided into the server, client and a little code that is used by both:

* [[Finding your way around the Stendhal Server Code]]

* [[Finding your way around the Stendhal Client Code]]

* [[Finding your way around the Stendhal Web Client Code]] (early development)

== Coding Standards ==

We try to follow [http://java.sun.com/docs/codeconv/html/CodeConvTOC.doc.html SUN Java code convention], in order to create code that feels familiar to many developers.
