Welcome to NPL Editor!

A graphical editor for '.npl' files used together with 'Nopipeline' to produce '.mgcb' files for MonoGame projects.

Inspired by the MGCB Editor.

Setup NPL Editor

1. Open or create a MonoGame project via Visual Studio.
2. Install the Nopipeline.Task.
3. Install the NPLEditor as a GLOBAL dotnet tool.
4. Install the NPLEditor.VSExtension via Visual Studio.
5. Profit ???

Yes! It should be possible now to double click the Content.npl file inside your Content folder to open the NPL Editor.

Everything you change inside this editor will modify the corresponding Content.npl file now 🥳.
