Looking for learning resources
I am quite new to modding and running a server and am really wanting to learn
Have gotten super confused about eggs vs loaders, compatability, optimizing, how to read java errors and heap dumps, what spigot/bukkit/paper/bungeecord/etc are, and probably everything you could think of.
and what the heck plugins are, and whether i should use them? (been trying to find ways to change settings that just don't seem to be readily available, and love the paper default configs, but ... those don't seem to be available for forge)
Can someone recommend some simple language resources to start learning about any of these things?
I do well with understanding the why behind how things work but am a bit of a slow learner (being heavily on the visual learning side of things doesn't help), so when folks tell me "just do xyz" I don't end up understanding why that is the best choice, and then don't know how to make decisions based on that info in the future.
Hopefully that makes sense, and thanks so much for any suggestions!
