Minecraft command guides

Our tools build the command for you, but some things you have to understand before it will actually work. These guides cover those

Minecraft command basics

Start from zero: how to enable cheats, where commands can be typed, and enough about selectors and coordinates to get going

A deep look at the square-bracket arguments, from type and distance through limit and sort, plus how to work out why a command matched nobody

Why ~ and ^ cannot be mixed, why blocks end up in the wrong place, and which form to reach for in which situation

Take the commands you generated and run them automatically — once, on repeat, or chained one after another

Legacy NBT, 1.20.5 components, and 1.21.5 components side by side — compared using commands built by the generator itself

Create an objective the game tracks for you — or track it yourself from a command block — then use the score as a condition elsewhere

The most powerful command in the game, taken apart piece by piece — how as differs from at, and why reordering changes the result

Work back from the error the game shows you, with the usual cause behind each one

Every guide links to the matching tools at the end — read it, then go straight to generating the command instead of typing it out
