+## Slippery Mod with ModAPI
+In this tutorial you will learn how to modify properties of blocks, and run the code that does this on both the dedicated server and the client.
+
+We'll begin with the basic boilerplate mod code:
+```javascript
+(function SlipperyMod() {
+    ModAPI.meta.title("Slippery Mod");
+    ModAPI.meta.description("Makes everything turn into ice.");
+    ModAPI.meta.credits("By <author_name>");
+
+    //New code will go here!
+})();
+```
+
+Let's write the client side part of the code first.
+- We'll get the keys for the ModAPI.blocks object (ids of each block) using [`Object.keys()`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Object/keys)
+- Then, we'll loop over those keys, and modify their respective block to be as slippery as ice.
+```javascript
+var blockKeys = Object.keys(ModAPI.blocks);
+
+blockKeys.forEach(key => { //for each key (block id)
+    //make sure the block has a slipperiness property
+    //https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Operators/Optional_chaining
+    if(ModAPI.blocks[key]?.slipperiness) {
+        ModAPI.blocks[key].slipperiness = 0.98; //Set the slipperiness value of the block at that key to 0.98
+    }
+});
+```
+
+Your code should now look like this:
+```javascript
+(function SlipperyMod() {
+    ModAPI.meta.title("Slippery Mod");
+    ModAPI.meta.description("Makes everything turn into ice.");
+    ModAPI.meta.credits("By <author_name>");
+
+    var blockKeys = Object.keys(ModAPI.blocks);
+    blockKeys.forEach(key => {
+        if(ModAPI.blocks[key]?.slipperiness) {
+            ModAPI.blocks[key].slipperiness = 0.98;
+        }
+    });
+})();
+```
+
+Your code should now look like this:
+```javascript
+(function SlipperyMod() {
+    ModAPI.meta.title("Slippery Mod");
+    ModAPI.meta.description("Makes everything turn into ice.");
+    ModAPI.meta.credits("By <author_name>");
+
+    var blockKeys = Object.keys(ModAPI.blocks);
+    blockKeys.forEach(key => {
+        if(ModAPI.blocks[key]?.slipperiness) {
+            ModAPI.blocks[key].slipperiness = 0.98;
+        }
+    });
+
+    //dedicated server code will be added here
+})();
+```
+
+Currently this only runs on the client meaning in singleplayer, when you throw an item or punch a sheep, it still won't slide. Only you will.
+
+We'll have to duplicate the code to run on the server using [`ModAPI.dedicatedServer`](../apidoc/dedicatedserver.md).
+We also have to run the code after the `serverstart` event, as on the server, `ModAPI.blocks` is only created when it is needed.
+```javascript
+ModAPI.dedicatedServer.appendCode(function () {
+    //Code in here cannot reference outside variables.
+    ModAPI.addEventListener("serverstart", function () {
+        var blockKeys = Object.keys(ModAPI.blocks);
+        blockKeys.forEach(key => {
+            if(ModAPI.blocks[key]?.slipperiness) {
+                ModAPI.blocks[key].slipperiness = 0.98;
+            }
+        });
+    });
+});
+```
+
+let's add this to the final mod, and we'll be finished!
+```javascript
+(function SlipperyMod() {
+    ModAPI.meta.title("Slippery Mod");
+    ModAPI.meta.description("Makes everything turn into ice.");
+    ModAPI.meta.credits("By <author_name>");
+
+    var blockKeys = Object.keys(ModAPI.blocks);
+    blockKeys.forEach(key => {
+        if(ModAPI.blocks[key]?.slipperiness) {
+            ModAPI.blocks[key].slipperiness = 0.98;
+        }
+    });
+
+    ModAPI.dedicatedServer.appendCode(function () {
+        //Code in here cannot reference outside variables.
+        ModAPI.addEventListener("serverstart", function () {
+            var blockKeys = Object.keys(ModAPI.blocks);
+            blockKeys.forEach(key => {
+                if(ModAPI.blocks[key]?.slipperiness) {
+                    ModAPI.blocks[key].slipperiness = 0.98;
+                }
+            });
+        });
+    });
+})();
+```
