Hello, I recently got into spigot and I've found a couple tiny plugins which seem cool but, they no longer have support afaik, where would I learn to start updating them to 1.19 ? is that against the rules for personal use? not like I'm redistributing it

If they have a public repository (github for example) then you simply clone it and update the code to the latest version.
I hope that you are not just starting out because a plugin that works in 1.18 but not 1.19 most likely makes use of nms which is a really advanced topic in spigot development and requires quite a bit of expertise.

I am very much just starting out

Then very quickly forget the idea of updating other peoples plugins

but, I figured it'd probably be easier to learn to update something than it would be to make something from scratch

#

atleast something useful.

Do you have a decent amount of programming experience at least?

I did have some back like 10 odd years ago in python and such, times have changed tho.

#

to be fair, I did ask where to start like 4 days ago and didn't get any responses

#

and now I'm here.

dope, thanks, guess I'll try to bang this out within a week.

wonder if it would be easier to just make a plugin that expands barrels to double chest size than to try and update it
