+
+## Adding the dependency
+
+Minestom is available on Maven Central.
+Get it by enabling Maven Central (on Gradle) and adding a version to your dependencies.
+
+:::tabs
+
+== Gradle (Groovy)
+
+```groovy-vue
+repositories {
+    mavenCentral()
+}
+dependencies {
+    implementation 'net.minestom:minestom-snapshots:{{ version }}'
+}
+```
+
+== Gradle (Kotlin)
+
+```kotlin-vue
+repositories {
+    mavenCentral()
+}
+dependencies {
+    implementation("net.minestom:minestom-snapshots:{{version}}")
+}
+```
+
+== Maven
+
+```xml-vue
+<dependencies>
+    <!-- ... -->
+    <dependency>
+        <groupId>net.minestom</groupId>
+        <artifactId>minestom-snapshots</artifactId>
+        <version>{{version}}</version>
+    </dependency>
+</dependencies>
+```
+
+:::
+
+The version string is always the first 10 characters of a commit hash. You can view commits 
+[here](https://github.com/Minestom/Minestom/commits/master/).
+
+Minestom PR branches are also published and can be used to preview upcoming features. For such branches, the version
+string is `{branch}-{first 10 chars of commit}`. For example, the 1_20_5 branch was usable with the version string
+`1_20_5-dd965f4bb8`.
+
+## Setting up shading
+
+For Gradle users, we will use [the "Shadow" plugin](https://imperceptiblethoughts.com/shadow/introduction/) to include Minestom in the JAR file.
+
+ For Maven users, you will need [the "Shade" plugin](https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-shade-plugin/). If you use Maven and would like to contribute an example
+it would be appreciated :)
+
+::: warning
+As of the time writing this, the original shadow plugin from johnrengelman has not been updated for Java 21 support, so we'll use a fork in this example.
+:::
+
+:::tabs
+
+== Gradle (Groovy)
+
+```groovy
+plugins {
+    id "io.github.goooler.shadow" version "8.1.7"
+}
+```
+
+== Gradle (Kotlin)
+
+```kts
+plugins {
+    id("io.github.goooler.shadow") version "8.1.7"
+}
+```
+
+:::
+
+## Finishing the configuration
+
+Finally, to create a runnable JAR, set your main class to be run.
+
+With all of this done, all we need to do is run the `shadowJar` task to create a working uber (fat) jar! (The jar will be put in `/build/libs/` by default)
+
+Below is a complete `build.gradle`/`build.gradle.kts` file
+
+:::tabs
+
+== Gradle (Groovy)
+
+```groovy
+plugins {
+    id 'java'
+    id "io.github.goooler.shadow" version "8.1.7"
+}
+
+group 'org.example'

+        attributes 'Main-Class': 'org.example.Main'
+    }
