+# Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct
+
+## Our Pledge
+
+We as members, contributors, and leaders pledge to make participation in our
+community a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of age, body
+size, visible or invisible disability, ethnicity, sex characteristics, gender
+identity and expression, level of experience, education, socio-economic status,
+nationality, personal appearance, race, caste, color, religion, or sexual
+identity and orientation.
+
+We pledge to act and interact in ways that contribute to an open, welcoming,
+diverse, inclusive, and healthy community.
+
+## Our Standards
+
+Examples of behavior that contributes to a positive environment for our
+community include:
+
+* Demonstrating empathy and kindness toward other people
+* Being respectful of differing opinions, viewpoints, and experiences
+* Giving and gracefully accepting constructive feedback
+* Accepting responsibility and apologizing to those affected by our mistakes,
+  and learning from the experience
+* Focusing on what is best not just for us as individuals, but for the overall
+  community
+
+Examples of unacceptable behavior include:
+
+* The use of sexualized language or imagery, and sexual attention or advances of
+  any kind
+* Trolling, insulting or derogatory comments, and personal or political attacks
+* Public or private harassment
+* Publishing others' private information, such as a physical or email address,
+  without their explicit permission
+* Other conduct which could reasonably be considered inappropriate in a
+  professional setting
+
+## Enforcement Responsibilities
+
+Community leaders are responsible for clarifying and enforcing our standards of
+acceptable behavior and will take appropriate and fair corrective action in
+response to any behavior that they deem inappropriate, threatening, offensive,
+or harmful.
+
+Community leaders have the right and responsibility to remove, edit, or reject
+comments, commits, code, wiki edits, issues, and other contributions that are
+not aligned to this Code of Conduct, and will communicate reasons for moderation
+decisions when appropriate.
+
+## Scope
+
+This Code of Conduct applies within all community spaces, and also applies when
+an individual is officially representing the community in public spaces.
+Examples of representing our community include using an official email address,
+posting via an official social media account, or acting as an appointed
+representative at an online or offline event.
+
+## Enforcement
+
+Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior may be
+reported to the community leaders responsible for enforcement at
+`nico.mexis 'at' kabelmail 'dot' de`.
+All complaints will be reviewed and investigated promptly and fairly.
+
+All community leaders are obligated to respect the privacy and security of the
+reporter of any incident.
+
+## Enforcement Guidelines
+
+Community leaders will follow these Community Impact Guidelines in determining
+the consequences for any action they deem in violation of this Code of Conduct:
+
+### 1. Correction
+
+**Community Impact**: Use of inappropriate language or other behavior deemed
+unprofessional or unwelcome in the community.
+
+**Consequence**: A private, written warning from community leaders, providing
+clarity around the nature of the violation and an explanation of why the
+behavior was inappropriate. A public apology may be requested.
+
+### 2. Warning
+
+**Community Impact**: A violation through a single incident or series of
+actions.
+
+**Consequence**: A warning with consequences for continued behavior. No
+interaction with the people involved, including unsolicited interaction with

+includes avoiding interactions in community spaces as well as external channels
+like social media. Violating these terms may lead to a temporary or permanent
+ban.
+
+### 3. Temporary Ban
+
+**Community Impact**: A serious violation of community standards, including
+sustained inappropriate behavior.
+
+**Consequence**: A temporary ban from any sort of interaction or public
+communication with the community for a specified period of time. No public or
+private interaction with the people involved, including unsolicited interaction
+with those enforcing the Code of Conduct, is allowed during this period.
+Violating these terms may lead to a permanent ban.
+
+### 4. Permanent Ban

+
+Expanded Armory: Legacy is a simple mod, it takes the tool materials from other mods and brings them to Balkon's WeaponMod: Legacy.  
+This is [HyperSpeeed](https://nmexis.me/)'s modernisation fork of
+the [original project](https://github.com/mallrat208/ExpandedArmory).
+
+## Why?
+
+Rest in Pieces, Expanded Armory!  
+This project is meant as a homage to our good old friend: Expanded Armory.  
+Nine years ago (at the time of writing this it is beginning-2025), the mod was abandoned.
+As one of the two creators of Reforged, I wanted to pose a challenge to myself:  
+Directly port BWM and this gem of a mod to modern versions of Minecraft.
+
+I am working full-time, so I can only dedicate a bit of my precious time to projects like this.  
+I hope you enjoy playing around with it!
+
+Without anything further to say here, enjoy!
+
+## Contributing
+
+There are many ways to contribute!
+
+### Development
+
+Development should be rather easy. BWM: Legacy currently uses Loom in three different flavors:
+
+- [Architectury Loom](https://github.com/architectury/architectury-loom) for everything above 1.16.5. It is the easiest
+  way to enable multi-platform modding and is officially endorsed by
+  the [Architectury API](https://github.com/architectury/architectury) (which this mod depends on in 1.16.5+).
+- [Essential Loom](https://github.com/EssentialGG/architectury-loom) for all versions between 1.8.9 and 1.12.2. Sadly,
+  Architectury Loom does not officially support Minecraft versions that old. So,
+  the [Essential team](https://github.com/EssentialGG) added many fixes to Architectury Loom to support these legacy
+  versions.
+- [My own Loom](https://github.com/ThexXTURBOXx/architectury-loom/tree/dev/1.6-1.7.10) for everything between and below.
+  Sadly, even Essential Loom is not even able to handle some of these other versions correctly. So, I forked it and
+  hence created a fourth fork layer of the official Loom - perfect! I added fixes and hacks to make Loom even
+  1.7.10-compatible and fixed a few additional bugs that I found in upstream versions; that's all.
+
+This way, you don't have to worry about most of the background tasks.  
+If you want to change the mod's code, you can just do the following:
+
+1. Clone the repo: `git clone https://github.com/ThexXTURBOXx/Expanded-Armory-Legacy.git`
+2. Checkout the branch you want to work on, e.g., `git checkout 1.7.10`
+3. Open `build.gradle` or `build.gradle.kts` (depending on which version you want to develop on) in your favorite IDE (I
+   am using IntelliJ IDEA and everything works fine here... Don't know about other IDEs, though!)
+4. Your IDE should download and build some stuff. This might take quite some time...
+5. Now, you should be able to change the code properly!
+
+To test your changes, you can just do the following:
+
+1. Run `gradlew build` to compile the mod
+2. If everything worked fine, you should find the mod jar in either `build/libs/ExpandedArmory-forge-1.5.0.jar`
+   or `<PLATFORM>/build/libs/ExpandedArmory-<PLATFORM>-1.5.0.jar`
+
+When you are done with your changes, push them to
+a [fork](https://github.com/ThexXTURBOXx/Expanded-Armory-Legacy/fork) of my repository
+and [open a PR](https://github.com/ThexXTURBOXx/Expanded-Armory-Legacy/compare/1.7.10...Sunconure11:ExpandedArmory:master)!  
+**Make sure to target my repository, not the upstream (original) Expanded Armory repository!**
+
+<!--TODO
+### Translation
+
+This project uses [Crowdin](https://crowdin.com/project/balkons-weaponmod-legacy)!  
+If you want to translate the mod, feel free to change one of the existing languages there!  
+If you want to translate the mod to another language that I have not yet added there,
+please [open an issue](https://github.com/ThexXTURBOXx/Balkons-WeaponMod-Legacy/issues/new) to ask me to add it there
+first.-->
+
+### Bug Reports and Feature Requests
+
+If you find a bug or want to see something new in the mod, feel free to let me know by
+[opening an issue](https://github.com/ThexXTURBOXx/Expanded-Armory-Legacy/issues/new)!
