 # Mindustry Java Mod Template
 A Java Mindustry mod template that works on Android and PC. The Kotlin version of this mod can be seen [here](https://github.com/Anuken/MindustryKotlinModTemplate).
 
+## Registering the mod with Mindustry Mod Browser
+
+The list of mods displayed in the Mod Browser is [created automatically](https://github.com/Anuken/MindustryMods). For your mod to be included, the following criteria need to be met:
+
+- Must have a valid `mod.json` / `mod.hjson` file in the root or `assets/` directory.
+- Must have the `mindustry-mod` topic. Do **NOT** use the `mindustry-mod-v7` or `mindustry-mod-v8` topics, they are ignored!
+- Must have a `minGameVersion` >= `136` in `mod.json`.
+- Must have a release published, containing the compiled mod as an asset. This template ensures this asset is created automatically when a release is published, just creating and publishing a release is enough.
+
+### Opting Out
+
+If you would like to remove your mod from the public browser, add `hideBrowser: true` to your `mod.json` / `mod.hjson`.
+
 ## Building for Desktop Testing
 
 1. Install JDK **17**.
