  • Please only submit contributions that you have tested, reviewed, and feel you understand.
  • All comments or documentation must be fully human-authored. Any AI-written or even AI-assisted comments are not allowed.

Development Guide

To develop for noclip.website, you'll need these requisites:

Then, use the following commands to set up your environment (only needed every so often):

  • Install dependencies from npm: pnpm install,
  • Set up the required rust binaries:
    rustup target add wasm32-unknown-unknown
    cd rust
    cargo install cargo-run-bin
    cargo bin --install
    

Finally, to build and run the project, use pnpm start. This will start a live-reloading environment and uses filesystem watchers to auto-build the project.

For any questions related to development, see the Official noclip.website Discord Server's #development channel. A number of developers from the community are present there and can help answer questions if you run into any additional issues getting set up.
