 ====== Installing Fabric ======
-Note: An official way to install the client into the "vanilla" launcher is not yet available.

 Press OK. Your Fabric instance is ready to go - feel free to add mods to it!
+===== Client ("Vanilla" Launcher) =====
+First, download the Fabric installer from [[http://fabric.asie.pl/use/|the download page]].
+After opening it, a window will appear. Configure:
+  * the mapping and loader version (as per advice in the MultiMC section);
+  * the install location (the default should be fine on most platforms).
+Press Install. A new game version and profile will be created in the vanilla launcher's menu, which you can now use to launch Fabric.
 ===== Dedicated Server =====
-Go to [[http://fabric.asie.pl/use/|the download page]] and choose the desired loader version - the game/mapping version is chosen later, so don't worry about it.
+**Up-to-date as of Loader 0.4.4+**. Older versions choose different techniques.
+Go to [[http://fabric.asie.pl/use/|the download page]] and download the installer.
-Click "download server launcher" or "copy server launcher .JAR url". Use this to download the server launcher.
+In the installer, choose the desired mappings (-> game) version, plus the desired loader version.
-Additionally, download the //vanilla// server .JAR for a given Minecraft version - these can generally be found on Mojang's version announcement blog posts.
+In the output directory, a "fabric-server-launch.jar" will be created. It expects a "server.jar" next to it, which is the vanilla server .JAR, generally found on Mojang's version announcement blog posts - but will also generate a properties file on first launch where you can change the path.
-Put both .JARs in the same directory. From the command line, run:
+===== Adding Mods =====
-''java -Xmx[RAM amount, for example 2G] -jar fabric-loader-[version].jar [minecraft server JAR] [arguments...]''
+To add a mod to your Fabric client, navigate to the mods folder inside your Minecraft directory. If it does not exist, create it now. Download the jar of the mod you want, and drop it into this folder. Most mods will require Fabric API; you can place the jar for the API in /mods as well.
-This should let you run the server.
+For a list of Fabric mods, you can [[https://minecraft.curseforge.com/mc-mods/fabric?filter-sort=4|go to Minecraft CurseForge and set the filter type to Fabric]].
