The godot-rust book

The godot-rust book is a user guide for gdext, the Rust bindings to Godot 4. The book is still work-in-progress, and contributions are very welcome.

An online version of the book is available at godot-rust.github.io/book.
For the gdnative book, check out gdnative-book.

The book is built with mdBook and the plugins mdbook-toc and mdbook-admonish. To install them and build the book locally, you can run:

cargo install mdbook mdbook-toc mdbook-admonish
mdbook build

To run a local server with automatic updates while editing the book, use:

mdbook serve --open

Formatting and linting

We use markdownlint to enforce a consistent style across the Markdown files. It is automatically run during CI, but if you have the npm toolchain, you can also run it locally:

npm install --global markdownlint-cli2
./lint.sh

Oxipng

We use oxipng to optimize image file size. You can install it with cargo install oxipng and then run it as follows:

oxipng --strip safe --alpha -r src
