+= What is Apollo?
+
+Apollo is a high-performance, modular RuneScape emulator with a collection of utilities for managing data files and plugins.
+Apollo targets revision 377 of the RuneScape client from late 2006.
+It aims to achieve parity with the game server of that time and preserve the history of the game in doing so.
+
+== Is Apollo free?
+
+Apollo is open source and made available under the ISC license.
+The git repository for the project is hosted under the https://github.com/apollo-rsps[Apollo RSPS organization] on GitHub.

+[[getting-started-with-plugins]]
+= Creating a plugin
+
+Apollo's plugins are written in http://kotlinlang.org[Kotlin] and are
+primarily for content, not core code (if you aren't sure where your code
+should go, ask in irc). Note that this tutorial assumes some familiarity
+with Kotlin, although good Java knowledge will probably be enough.
+
+Note: This tutorial is for developing Plugins for the kotlin-experiments
+branch prior to the release of the Kotlin plugin system for Apollo.
+
+[[create-the-working-environment]]
+== Create a working environment
+
+The project maintainers strongly recommend
+https://www.jetbrains.com/idea/[IntelliJ IDEA].
+
+After starting IDEA, select *checkout project* with the URL:
+https://github.com/apollo-rsps/apollo.git and continue. Make sure to
+*import using gradle* on the next interface.
+
+Next, checkout the kotlin-experiments branch. To do this via IntelliJ,
+use the navigation bar at the top and 'VCS > Git > Branches >
+origin/kotlin-experiments > Checkout as new branch'. Name the new branch
+something like kotlin-experiments-my-plugin.
+
+[[create-the-plugin-metadata]]
+== Create the plugin metadata
+
+Apollo's plugins are stored in */game/plugin*, and each plugin has its
+own directory. Create one for your plugin - something like 'myplugin'.
+
+Inside that, create a directory called 'src', then right click it and
+'Mark Directory as > Sources Root'. It should turn blue. +
+Inside your plugin's directory (*not* in src) you'll want a
+*build.gradle* file, containing something like:
+
+....
+plugin {
+    name = "myplugin"
+    authors = [ "your name" ]
+}
+....
+
+
+Sometimes you need to use code from another plugin, which can be done
+like so: `dependencies = [ "util:lookup" ]`
+
+This imports the `lookup` plugin from `util`.
+
+[[write-the-plugin]]
+== Write the plugin
+
+Plugins are written in kotlin script (_.kts_), which is then transpiled
+into Java (bytecode) at compile time. Kotlin script is designed to be
+executed like a scripting language: you do *not* need a main function (a
+kotlin script consisting of nothing more than `println("Hello, world!")`
+will indeed compile and print "Hello, world!").
+
+Apollo uses the _.plugin.kts_ extension to mark files as plugin scripts.
+
+Add a file named 'myplugin.plugin.kts' inside `src` and add the
+following code:
+
+[source,kotlin]
+----
+import org.apollo.game.action.Action
+import org.apollo.game.message.impl.InventoryItemMessage
+import org.apollo.game.model.Item
+import org.apollo.game.model.entity.Entity
+import org.apollo.game.model.entity.EntityType
+import org.apollo.game.model.entity.GroundItem
+import org.apollo.game.model.entity.Player
+
+class DropItemAction(val player: Player, val slot: Int): Action<Player>(delay = 0, immediate = true, player) {
+
+    override fun execute() {
+        val region = player.world.regionRepository.fromPosition(player.position)
+
+        if (region.getEntities<Entity>(player.position, EntityType.DYNAMIC_OBJECT, EntityType.STATIC_OBJECT).isEmpty()) {
+            val amount = player.inventory.reset(slot)?.amount
+            if (amount == null) {
+                return
+            }
+
+            val item = GroundItem.create(player.world, player.position, Item(item, amount), player)
+            player.world.spawn(item)
+        } else {
+            player.sendMessage("You cannot drop this here.")
+        }
+
+        stop()
+    }
+
+}
+
+val DROP_OPTION_ID = 5
+val INVENTORY_INTERFACE_ID = 3214
+
+on { InventoryItemMessage::class }
+    .where { option == DROP_OPTION_ID && interfaceId == INVENTORY_INTERFACE_ID }
+    .then { player ->
+        player.startAction(DropItemAction(player, slot))
+        terminate()
+    }
+----
+
+Here we have an *action*, and a *listener*, the two core features of
+plugins.
+
+The `on {...}` lambda at the end is the listener, and listens for
+specific event types (typically a *Message* subclass) Here we are
+listening to `InventoryItemMessage`s, which are called whenever a player
+performs an action on an item in an inventory. +
+The `where` clause is used to filter out requests that don't match what
+we're looking for: here, we only care about messages where the player
+selected the fifth option (used for dropping), and when they selected
+that option on an item in the inventory (i.e. the interfaceId matches
+the inventory interface id). `where` is executed from the context of the
+intercepted message, so `option` and `interfaceId` are actually fields
+inside `InventoryItemMessage`. +
+The 'then' clause is executed if the `where` lambda evaluates to `true`.
+
+*Actions* are used to schedule player (or NPC)-related code to be
+executed in the future (and optionally, periodically). Plugins also have
+actions that can be used to suspend/asynchronously execute code. Here
+we're creating an `Action` that removes an item from the player's
+inventory and spawns a `GroundItem`. Because `Action`s are scheduled,
+`execute()` will be called every server pulse (tick), until the `stop()`
+function is called.
+
+Now you can build it by running `gradle build` in the command line, or
+in IntelliJ via 'View > Tool Windows > Gradle > Execute Gradle Task'
+(type 'build' for the command).
+
+Voila!
