Important

Paradise does not provide precompiled binaries, requiring you to build from source to host a local server.
Building Paradise is quick and simple, all you need to install is BYOND.

• Paradise Station Development Team Structure

A detailed policy document that governs how the Paradise Station Development Team functions, from the various roles that help keep things running to the process each PR goes through depending on the content.

• TGUI Tutorial

TGUI is a user interface framework, built on InfernoJS, for all new player-facing UIs.

TGUI is very different to most other BYOND user interfaces as it is written entirely in JavaScript with some data passed to and from DreamMaker. If you are looking to get to grips with TGUI, this tutorial is a good starting point. Additional information can also be found here.
