Introduction
GuideNH is an in-game guide and documentation framework, ported from and extended based on GuideME and Sisuo.
It is mainly used to provide manuals, tutorials, and information pages for other mods or modpacks. It supports writing page content directly in Markdown and rendering it in-game as a guide system with navigation, search, page jumping, recipe display, and interactive scenes.
This mod can also be used for in-game documentation, and it extends the original framework with additional runtime tags, scene presentation capabilities, and extensible APIs.
