-The '''ContentDB''' (short for “Content Database”) is the official source to download [[mods]], [[games]] and [[Texture Packs|texture packs]] that have been developed by the Luanti community. It's the fastest and most convenient method to obtain those things.

-The ContentDB can be accessed in Luanti (“Content” tab) or with your browser via [https://content.luanti.org content.luanti.org].
-== Usage ==
-=== In Luanti ===
-(You need version 5.0.0 or later.)
-In the main menu, click on the “Content” tab. You will see a list of everything that you have already installed.
-To get to the ContentDB, click on “Browse Online Content”.
-You will see a list of all available mods,
-Here you can browse and directly download and install the things you like to install.
-Everything you download here will be available instantly, once it's installed. No restart required.
-Use the drop-down list in the top right corner to filter the content type.
-Note that mods and games might receive updates by their respective authors. If an update is available, you can simply return to the ContentDB and click on “Update”.
-And that's really all there is to it!
-=== The website ===
-The website of the ContentDB is at [https://content.luanti.org content.luanti.org].
-The main advantage of the website is that it contains more information to read, more screenshots to admire and more links to click on. You can also download the stuff from here as well, but then you need to manually install it to the correct location, of course. See [[Mods]], [[Games]] or [[Texture Packs]] to learn more.
-== On software freedom ==
-Proprietary software, or things under restrictive license terms in general, are currently NOT banned on the ContentDB. But they are currently (as of 5.9.0) being hidden by default in Luanti.
-This means that everything you can download from Luanti's Content tab is released under a free/libre license. But on the ContentDB website, you might run across proprietary things. Those things that are under restrictive licenses are always explicitly marked as such. Also, proprietary things are being heavily reduced in their ranking (the order things are displayed in).
-Please note that almost every contributor in the Luanti community contributes their things under free/libre software licenses. Proprietary software is a rare sight and even then, it's generally frowned upon.
