--- ## 🔧 Quick Start 1. Drop **NeON.jar** and **[PlaceholderAPI](https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/placeholderapi.6245/)** into your `plugins/` folder. 2. Start your server – NeON will create a **fully‑documented** `config.yml`. 3. If you don't already have these **PlaceholderAPI Expansions** installed run: ```mcfunction /papi ecloud download Player /papi ecloud download Server /papi ecloud download Essentials /papi reload ``` 4. Start configuring! - You can use ```/neon reload``` to hot-reload your configuration file. --- > **Tip:** Mix legacy `&` colour codes, MiniMessage formatting, and PlaceholderAPI/NeON placeholders freely – NeON cleverly parses them all! --- ## 🤝 Integrations - **[PlaceholderAPI](https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/placeholderapi.6245/)** – endless placeholders. - **[MiniMessage](https://docs.advntr.dev/minimessage/format.html)** – modern formatting tags (``, ``, ``…). - **Vanish Plugins** – [SuperVanish](https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/supervanish-be-invisible.1331/) & VanishNoPacket are detected automatically. - (Essentials Vanish not supported.) --- ## ❤️ Support & License Released under **CC BY‑NC‑SA 4.0**.
