This page explains how mod creators can perform common tasks in SMAPI mods. (Note: this page is for interacting with the game itself, for SMAPI-provided tasks see SMAPI reference)
Things to note
Many things in Stardew Valley are accessed through Game1. It is highly recommended to decompile the game source and look at how the game does things and then attempt to do it yourself. This is a general guide to point you to the right places in the code to look, it is not meant to give you the code. Modding:Creating a SMAPI mod //todo link to decompiling section
