<div style="padding: 0em 1em; font-size: 1.5em;">Welcome to the wiki.</div>
<div style="text-align: left; font-size: 1em; margin: 0.3em 1em;">Below you will find information that you might find helpful on your development journies. The source code for EQ2 Emulation is written in C++ and uses LUA for the scripting language. The project is open source and is available through git. EQ2Emulator no longer actively develops the source code, but our friends at Zeklabs handle code development. If you are interested in writing code, visit [https://zeklabs.com Zeklabs.com], [https://EQ2Emu.com EQ2Emu.com], and their [https://discord.gg/5Cavm9NYQf Discord] server for more information.

<div style="text-align: left; font-size: 1em; margin: 0.3em 1em;">These are the tools that help our devs in creating the emulator. Some are open source and allow for others to add and improve those tools. Others do not share the source for various of reasons like we are unable to get into contact with the creator to obtain the source.
