====== Slimefun Wiki Home ======

Slimefun expands Minecraft with new crafting stations, power networks, automation, tools, armor, magical gear, and progression systems. This wiki is being rebuilt to explain those systems in a way that is useful to players while they are actually playing.

**Default behavior:** Unless a page says otherwise, descriptions here assume a server using Slimefun's normal item behavior. Server owners can still disable or rebalance items, so check the in-game Slimefun Guide for the exact recipe, research cost, and unlock order on your server.

===== Main Categories =====

  * [[basic_machines|Basic Machines]] - the early machines and workstations that open up the rest of the tech tree.
  * [[energy_and_electricity|Energy and Electricity]] - power generation, storage, transport, and electric machines.

===== Good First Goals =====

  - Unlock and learn the [[enhanced_crafting_table|Enhanced Crafting Table]].
  - Build a small processing line in [[basic_machines|Basic Machines]].
  - Set up your first power network with an [[energy_regulator|Energy Regulator]] and a generator.
  - Add quality-of-life automation with machines like the [[auto_anvil|Auto Anvil]], [[auto_brewer|Auto Brewer]], and [[auto_drier|Auto Drier]].
  - Expand into [[cargo_management|Cargo Management]] once moving items by hand starts slowing you down.

===== Documentation Status =====

This DokuWiki is currently being refreshed from older pages that used inconsistent formatting and incomplete coverage. Expect the navigation hubs and machine pages to improve first, followed by broader item-by-item coverage.
