### Templates
There are two templates for New Horizons addons.
The [New Horizons Addon Template](https://github.com/xen-42/ow-new-horizons-config-template) is used for addons that **don't use custom code**,
this is ideal for simple projects and people just starting out.
The [Outer Wilds Mod Template](https://github.com/ow-mods/ow-mod-template) is used for mods that use custom code,
**you must enable "Use New Horizons" in order for it to work with New Horizons**.
This is ideal for people that want to expand on New Horizons and add custom behaviour.

## Making a GitHub Repository
To get started, we need a place to store our code. GitHub is one of the most popular websites to store source code, and it's also what the mod database uses to let people access our mod.

Now, click the green "Use This Template" button.
