This intended to provide filler information for the regular, very short [[AddOn Studio 2022 for WoW#Getting Started|Getting Started]] section on the main edition page. This is for anyone who might not necessarily have a lot of experience with Visual Studio, using folders in Windows, or in some of the other related areas. Documentation is added as time permits. | |||

# The only relevant portion of the install theoretically for AddOn dev is in the 'Data' folder. Inside that folder are folders that look like 'enTW' and 'zhTW'. Those are the language specific portions of WoW and are also the UI specific portions in total. The WoW UI content is always language specific, even if there are redundancies between them. In this case 'enTW' is English localized for Taiwan, and 'zhTW' is technically Chinese localized for Taiwan even though its really kind of its own language, and just to give you some context and perspective. The 'WTF' folder in the base WoW install folder can also be significant if you are trying to ensure or test variables. AddOn Studio will use the currently set WoW language by default, which is stored in the WTF folder in Config.wtf. Which language AddOn Studio uses can also be changed in the AddOn Studio settings. | # The only relevant portion of the install theoretically for AddOn dev is in the 'Data' folder.
