+====== Minecraft Modding Primer ======
 //Note: This primer assumes no prior experience modding Minecraft. However, you will need to have a firm grasp on programming in Java to work with Minecraft (see the Prerequisites section). If you are coming to Fabric from another modloader, like Forge, the [[introduction]] will probably be more at your level.//

"The basics" here means having a firm grasp on variables, functions, classes and methods, and object-oriented programming concepts like inheritance, polymorphism, and object casting. Your search engine is your friend!
