Before you can write your mod code, you need to create a solution and project to contain it.

==Set the target framework==

−

The 'target framework' is the version of .NET ~~Framework~~ your code uses, which affects the version needed to run your mod. The recommended target framework is .NET ~~Framework 4~~.5, which is the version SMAPI itself targets.

+

The 'target framework' is the version of .NET your code uses, which affects the version needed to run your mod. The recommended target framework is .NET 5.0, which is the version SMAPI itself targets. '''Please find the subsection below for your OS''' (Windows/Mac). '''You cannot use .NET 6.0'''.

+

(yes, we know .NET 5.0 is past EOL.)

===In Visual Studio ~~2017~~===

===In Windows Visual Studio 2019/2022===

'''NOTE: Visual Studio 2017 MAY no longer be compatible with creating mods!''' If you followed [[Modding:Modder_Guide/Get_Started]] and receive errors, from the code that page instructed be copy and pasted, with regards to helper.Events in the Entry(IModhelper helper) method and ButtonPressedEventArgs from the Entry(IModHelper helper) method, try the project-creation and code-copy/paste process again with Visual Studio 2019 instead.

# Open the Solution Explorer pane. If it's not visible, click ''View » Solution Explorer'' from the menu: [[File:Modding - IDE reference - show solution pane (Visual Studio).png]]

# From the Solution Explorer, right-click on the project and choose ''Properties'': [[File:Modding - IDE reference - change target framework (Visual Studio 1).png]]

−

# On the ''Application'' tab, change the ''Target Framework'' dropdown to ''.NET ~~Framework 4~~.5'': [[File:Modding - IDE reference - change target framework (Visual Studio 2).png]]

# On the ''Application'' tab, change the ''Target Framework'' dropdown to ''.NET 5.0'': [[File:Modding - IDE reference - change target framework (Visual Studio 2).png|800px]]

# A dialogue may appear asking you to confirm the change. Click 'Yes' to confirm: [[File:Modding - IDE reference - change target framework (Visual Studio 3).png]]

===In Visual Studio 2019 for Mac===

+

If you followed the instructions above to set up your project, your framework should already be set to .NET 5.0. However, if you picked the wrong class library or you just want to check, you can follow these steps to look at the .csproj file, which is basically equivalent to setting it manually. (If you're checking that it worked, don't replace the .csproj, just check it refers to .NET 5.0.)

+

Unfortunately there doesn't appear to be a way to change the target framework using the GUI. However, it is very easy to follow the 1.5.5 migration guide steps:

+

# Open the .csproj file for editing: [[File:VS Mac 7 editcsproj.png|600px]]

+

# Replace your mod's <samp>.csproj</samp> file with this (where <code>EXAMLE_MOD_NAME</code> is your solution's name):

+

+

+

+

<AssemblyName>EXAMPLE_MOD_NAME</AssemblyName>

+

<RootNamespace>EXAMPLE_MOD_NAME</RootNamespace>

+

+

+

</PropertyGroup>

+

+

+

</ItemGroup>

+

</Project>

+

</syntaxhighlight>

+

# If the mod uses [[Modding:Modder Guide/APIs/Harmony|Harmony]], add <code><nowiki><EnableHarmony>true</EnableHarmony></nowiki></code> to the property group.

===In MonoDevelop/Visual Studio for Mac===

+

'''This section is out of date for Stardew Valley 1.5.5. It appears you cannot change the .NET framework in this way with Visual Studio 2019 and Stardew Valley 1.5.5.'''

# Open the Solution pad. If it's not visible, click ''View » Pads » Solution'' from the menu: [[File:Modding - IDE reference - show solution pane (MonoDevelop).png]]

# From the Solution pad, right-click on the project and choose ''Options'': [[File:Modding - IDE reference - change target framework (MonoDevelop 1).png]]

# Click ''Tools » NuGet Package Manager » Manage NuGet Packages for Solution'' from the menu: [[File:Modding - IDE reference - add NuGet package (Visual Studio 1).png]]

# Note: if the nuget package manager is missing, you can add it as a package source with the following steps: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/37293242/nuget-package-manager-no-packages-found-even-though-the-package-exists

# On the ''Browse'' tab, search for the package and click on the result to display some options: [[File:Modding - IDE reference - add NuGet package (Visual Studio 2).png]]

===In Rider===

+

When opening a project for the first time, you must add a reference to StardewModdingAPI.dll for code completion to work.

+

# In the Explorer panel, select the ''Solution'' view

+

# Under the project, right-click on ''Dependencies'' and choose ''Reference...''

+

# In the Add Reference window, click ''Add From...'' at the bottom

+

# Find the DLL you want to reference, select it, and click ''OK''
