      <ol>
        <li>Make sure all requirements are installed.</li>
        <li>Extract the SMAPI zip archive alongside your Stardew.exe. For example, if using Steam this would be somewhere like ‘C:/ProgramFiles/Steam/steamapps/common/StardewValley’.</li>
        <li>To start SMAPI, launch StardewModdingAPI.exe.</li>
      </ol>
      NOTE!: If you are using Steam and still wish to have the Steam overlay while playing, you will need to add a launch option to the game. For example, this launch option will tell Steam to use SMAPI by default: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\StardewModdingAPI.exe %command%

      Mod developers would work off the release branch. The master branch will contain mid-version updates which could make your mods incompatable with both the current release and the upcoming releases. You should also take a look at the <a href="https://github.com/ClxS/SMAPI/wiki">Wiki</a> for some quick modding tutorials.
