Getting Started

🧾 What is JSONC?

ModelExtras uses .jsonc files (JSON with Comments) for configuration. JSONC is just like regular JSON, but it allows comments using // or /* */, making files easier to understand and document. The plugin uses these .jsonc files for vehicle configurations (ImVehft carcols .ivfc, sirens .eml, AVS sirens .json) are loaded from ModelExtras/data folder.

Recommended editors:

• Visual Studio Code (with built-in JSONC support)
• Notepad++ (with JSON plugins)
• Sublime Text

These editors provide syntax highlighting, formatting, and comment support for JSONC files.
