Editing Modding (section)

=== Packaging for others ===

A mod is '''a set of replacement files'''. Simplest distribution: a zip mirroring the <code>resources/app/</code> structure:

<pre>
my-dark-theme/
├── css/variables.css
└── css/theme.css
</pre>

Install instructions: "drop these into <code>resources/app/</code>, overwriting."

Good practice:
* Keep mods '''additive''' where possible - new component files wired in with one import line, not rewrites of core files. Two additive mods are less likely to collide.
* Document which base files you replace.
* Tell users that Steam's "verify integrity of game files" reverts changes (their uninstall path) and to back up originals.
