Description

Right now, users report that there isn't really a clear 'getting started' guide that provides an overview of how to dive into the API.

It would be nice to provide some sort of linear guide, targeting only native platforms, explaining how to:

  • Create a component
  • Send the component to a user
  • Create a component from a configuration using MiniMessage
  • maybe some other things?

How much of this can be done in our own docs without making too many assumptions about platforms? How much should be, we link to platforms for their dogumentation instead?

Migrated from https://github.com/KyoriPowered/adventure-docs/issues/150

Research direction

Start by reviewing the existing Adventure API documentation and the native platform documentation to identify what belongs in a project-owned guide versus external links. Done means a linear getting-started pathway covers creating a component, sending it to a user, and creating one from a configuration with MiniMessage, while clearly handling platform-specific assumptions.
