Hi, I'm looking for minecraft deveplores to couch me how to become a minecraft modder expert, from the very starting point all the way to the very end, there is not a single tutorial online that really makes you understand it very well, they all just care about they're income and they dosen't give a shrek about you, i've been searching for ways to learn for like 3 months now, until i reached a point were i realized that i'll never master modding until i have a personal couch, if you are having free time and are willing to do it for free i will really really appreciate it.

What is your experience with MC and mods? How long are you coding in general/with java? @stark ore
Also any specific directions you wanna go to? More client side? More server side? What MC version, fabric or forge based?
The more you explain your expectations the more likely you find someone that is interested in helping your one to one
Otherwise you could try to get contacts to a open source mod/plugin team and start writing pull requests. Feedback on that pr will also help you along the way. That requires the very basics though

there's tutorials for beginners and some help from locals, but becoming an expert is a path walked alone.
stark ore
tutorials are not going to make you so good at programming or at leaset what i want to be
your probebly going to suggest me KauponJoe’s tutorials but what i mean is that when you are done with the tutorial you are not going to be able to code/make anything that was not made inside of tutorials
willow roost
then you aren't ready to become an expert
Personal coaches in modding don't exist
anyone claiming to be one is trying to steal your money
stark ore
and when someone asks you like why was that here or why is that important your not going to know your just copy pasting without understanding what is the purpose of everything

well, a gentle guy reached out to me and he offered to coach me for Free
willow roost
my point still stands
stark ore
so yea i’m so glad that i posted that commission

people don't like handholding in this community
The only way to really get good is to keep doing it, do research, and occasionally asking questions
This isn't a skill that comes from a book or an individual person

i totally disagree
willow roost
No, it's completely true
no one wants to sit there and basically write your code for you
if you want that, raise a commission
Modding is mostly done by hobbyists

"Write your code for you" is not the same as helping someone ar every step of the path
I think the difference is in the kind of support someone seeks. Explaining the bug picture about a problem is fine for me personally, showing someone the next steps in their coding journey not so. You need to know where you want to go. Someone can just help you along the way, not lead you

I coached aaron and it took only about 6 years for him to become a good dev

that's still handholding though, and no one here wants to do that
it's one thing to learn and ask questions, it's another to ask what "static" means

If you really speedrun it, might push it to 5 years

Basically this, you will never find someone who will actually coach you inti becoming a good dev in any reasonable timeline
For free at that. Even if you only pay them $20/hr, for a year, that will still be $40,000 lol

Explaining stuff that I am well experienced in is something I like to do. I'm sure I'm not alone here. Sure, constantly and intensively talking about everything from beginning to end in that yourney is unrealistic I agree. But helping someone from time to time is definetly possible

#mod-dev exists for that
