Getting Started

How do I get started with mod development? In particular, there are some simple mods I'd just like to maintain - do bug fixes to keep them running in future patches. I've tried at least a couple tutorials over the last few years I've been in WoW, and either they didn't work because they were too difficult for a beginner, or maybe because they were outdated. I noticed that UI beginner's guide seems to have suffered the same fate. Does anyone have suggestions for me? Much appreciated. -Howbizr (talk) 20:46, 9 February 2009 (UTC)

Getting started with writing addons is a possible alternative. -- foxlit (talk) 16:58, 2 March 2009 (UTC)
WoW Programming is a great resource. However, even though it will be very challenging at first, trial and error (along with the book and other addons as reference) is the most effective way to learn. Start by writing small addons from scratch and work your way up. --Demeth (talk) 00:52, 5 March 2009 (UTC)
