 In this page you will learn how to add a new armor trim. As many other tutorials, we will be using ''tutorial'' as the namespace. This page is really a heavy spell check since we need to make a lot of files with specific names. In this page you will learn how to add a new armor trim.

 In theory we don't need to add a new item since this is more data packed than it is modded, but if you would do this using only a data pack we would be missing the nice tooltip in the description of the armor trim item. In theory we don't need to add a new item since this is more data packed than it is modded, but if you would do this using only a data pack we would be missing the nice tooltip in the description of the armor trim item.
  
-To register this item we need to register it as a new ''%%<yarn class_8052>.<yarn method_48418>(Identifier.of("tutorial", trimId))%%'', where the ''trimId'' can be separate from the actual item name, but for ease of making we will use the same for both. For the rest we will just need the basic thingamajig of [[item]] registration. Here we assume you have written a convenient static ''register'' method (see [[item]] tutorial).+To register this item we need to register it as a new ''%%<yarn class_8052>.<yarn method_48418>(Identifier.of("tutorial", trimId))%%'', where the ''trimId'' can be separate from the actual item name, but for ease of making we will use the same for both.
