I've recently learned about creating behavior packs and functions, and while on that journey I learned that I can write scripts in JavaScript, even in Bedrock edition. However, I'm having trouble finding resources for getting started. Like any system I need to know how things work before I can start writing code. The most I've found so far is that there are two different types of scripts I can create:

  • Client
  • Server

However, I have no idea how to get started. Most systems have some sort of main function to start with, but I can't seem to find anything in the plethora of information available on the web on how to get started. I just need the equivalent of a hello world, and some reliable source of documentation.

How can I get started with a hello world script for Minecraft Bedrock edition?

  • Bonus, is there a reliable source of documentation for things like events and objects?

Go to the Minecraft site and scroll to the bottom and download the vanilla behaviour pack. Inside you will find documentation.

Note that JavaScript operates on a start at line 1 then work down (for the most part, while this isn't exactly true due to some stuff like functions being boosted but that's what matters) rather then having a main function. It doesn't need to execute inside of a function either, it just executes the first statement, then the next, the next, etc..
