🎯 Tips & Tricks
If you're a player, install JotunnLib manually by placing the DLL in your BepInEx/plugins folder — it's a drop-in dependency.
For mod developers, check the official documentation on GitHub for API examples and usage patterns.
Ensure you have BepInEx installed first, as JotunnLib requires it to run.
