🎯 Tips & Tricks
If you're a modder, check if the mods you use require this framework — if so, you'll need to install it even though it's deprecated.
Since it's deprecated, test your mods with the latest SMAPI version to ensure they still work.
For players, this mod does nothing on its own — it's only useful as a dependency for other mods.

⚠️ Common Mistakes
- Installing multiple mods that modify the same files without checking compatibility
👍 Pros
- Huge community trust (15,784 endorsements) — this was the go-to framework for years.
- Massive download count (531,085) means tons of mods likely depend on it.
- Simple integration: just add 'using Entoarox.Framework;' to your code.
👎 Cons
- Deprecated since April 2021 — no updates for years, so compatibility with current SMAPI is risky.
- Not for players — it's a developer tool, so if you're not coding mods, this does nothing for you.
- No documentation or examples provided in the description, so learning curve is steep.
