# Getting Started

## JSON-Editor

Galaxy Swapper v2 plugins use a format called [JSON](https://stackoverflow.com/a/383699). To create a plugin, you will need a JSON editor. You can use one of the following editors:

* [Visual Studio Code](https://code.visualstudio.com/Download)
* [Notepad++](https://notepad-plus-plus.org/downloads/)

## FModel

To access the asset paths for your plugin, you will need to explore the Fortnite game files. This can be achieved by downloading [FModel](https://fmodel.app/download).

## Creating Your Base Plugin

Each cosmetic type has a different format to allow for more advanced swaps or to support certain data for a cosmetic. To get started please refer to the corresponding cosmetic type in the table of contents below.
