Welcome to the Minecraft: GUIDE TO REDSTONE!

There’s always more to explore in the world of Minecraft. Even the bravest defeater of the Ender Dragon, the most intrepid elytra pilot, or mega-city sculptor may not have yet dug into the incredible depths of redstone.

Learning how to use redstone is your way to building useful contraptions that automate farming, traps to prank your friends with, and even computers that work *inside* the game!

Redstone is amazingly rewarding to play with and as powerful as your imagination, but its NOR gates and comparators can be intimidating to newcomers. So you did the right thing to open this handbook, which will teach you everything you need to know to start your own career as a redstone engineer!

It’s split into three sections. The first will introduce you to all the blocks that work with redstone and what they do. In the second, you’ll learn how to create the essential redstone structures that are found in many contraptions, from clock circuits to staircases. And in the last, you’re going to put all that knowledge into action and build fun contraptions that will impress your friends.

Let’s get engineering!
