links.json gains a website key; the launcher shows a quiet Website link under Join Discord and lists it in the links CLI command and MCP tool. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

# Horizon documentation
|
|
|
|
To play, use [the launcher](../launcher/README.md); the project site is [playhorizon.dev](https://playhorizon.dev). These pages are for developers.
|
|
|
|
## Build and run
|
|
|
|
- [Build from source](../README.md#build-from-source): your own copy of the game, resource preparation, `cargo run`.
|
|
- [Native client](native-client.md): options, controls, the dedicated server, `horizon-ctl` scripting, packaging, architecture.
|
|
- [Graphics](graphics.md): the Simple and Advanced graphics settings, the graphics benchmark and what it measured.
|
|
- [Launcher](../launcher/README.md): installs, updates and starts builds; its CLI and MCP server; releasing it.
|
|
- Menus: the title, world list, create world, multiplayer, options and pause screens share the launcher's design tokens and fonts (`crates/horizon-theme`), drawn by `ui_theme` over a live frozen backdrop (`game/backdrop.rs`, blurred and graded by `post.rs`). Options → Interface → Menu style switches to vanilla's screens (Classic, kept in `horizon.txt`; `HORIZON_MENU_STYLE=horizon|classic` overrides it, and scripted runs default to Classic). [Title](media/menu-title.png) ([webm](media/menu-title.webm)), [worlds](media/menu-worlds.png), [options](media/menu-options.png), [pause](media/menu-pause.png).

|
|
## Parity
|
|
|
|
- [Rust rewrite status](rust-parity.md): completion criteria, how to reproduce the validation, and per-area scope.
|
|
- [Parity workflow](parity-workflow.md): `tools/parity.py`, the gate, other machines, merging.
|
|
- Area notes: [block behaviours and ticking](parity/blocks.md), [section meshing](parity/meshing.md).
|
|
- [Decompilation and research lab](research-lab.md) and [decompilation status](decompilation-status.md): the local game inspection workspace the harnesses build on.
|
|
|
|
## Architecture: world generation
|
|
|
|
- [World generation](world-generation.md): the pipeline from noise to features.
|
|
- [Noise generation](noise-generation.md), [compiled density functions](density-functions.md), [structure density](structure-density.md), [terrain filling](terrain-filling.md).
|
|
- Biomes: [lookup](biome-lookup.md), [temperatures](biome-temperatures.md).
|
|
- Surfaces: [material surfaces](material-surfaces.md), [material conditions](material-conditions.md), [rule libraries](material-rule-libraries.md), [vertical anchors](vertical-anchors.md), [value providers](value-providers.md).
|
|
- [Carving](carving.md), [heightmaps](heightmaps.md), [feature placement](feature-placement.md).
|
|
|
|
## Architecture: world data and simulation
|
|
|
|
- [World data](world-data.md): chunk storage, palettes, region files.
|
|
- [Block-state codecs](block-state-codecs.md), [scheduled ticks](scheduled-ticks.md).
|
|
- [Collision geometry](collision-geometry.md): shapes, collision, movement and fluids.
|
|
- [Face visibility](face-visibility.md): which model faces the mesher emits.
|
|
|
|
## The earlier Java track (no longer developed)
|
|
|
|
- [Java performance packs](java-packs.md), with [Vulkan on your Mac](vulkan.md), [collector comparisons](collectors.md), [profiling](profiling.md), [process memory](process-memory.md) and [tick state](tick-state.md); [server quickstart](server-quickstart.txt).
