+
+# PlayerStats Architecture (Plain English)
+
+PlayerStats is a Minecraft server plugin. Players type a command, the plugin looks up stats from existing player data, and it prints a nice chat message. No database setup.
+
+---
+
+## Big picture
+
+```
+Player types /stat
+ ↓
+Commands figure out what they want
+ ↓
+Background threads do the heavy lifting
+ ↓
+Statistic code reads player data
+ ↓
+Message code formats the answer
+ ↓
+Chat shows the result (optional share button)
+```
+
+---
+
+## Where things live
+
+Everything useful sits under `src/main/java/.../playerstats/`.
+
+| Folder | What it's for |
+|--------|----------------|
+| `core/` | The actual plugin (startup, commands, logic) |
+| `api/` | Public face for other plugins to use PlayerStats |
+| `src/main/resources/` | Config files, language text, plugin.yml |
+
+---
+
+## Startup (`core/Main.java`)
+
+When the server enables the plugin, `Main` does this in order:
+
+1. Load config and helpers (language, offline players, messages, sharing)
+2. Set up stat requests and the thread manager
+3. Register commands (`/statistic`, `/statshare`, `/statreload`, `/statexclude`)
+4. Listen for players joining
+5. Start optional metrics (bStats)
+
+On disable, anything marked “closable” gets cleaned up. Reload reloads config first, then everything that registered itself as reloadable.
+
+---
+
+## Folders inside `core/` — what happens where
+
+### `commands/`
+Entry point for players and console.
+
+- **`StatCommand`** — main `/stat` command. Parses args, builds a request, or shows help/examples.
+- **`ShareCommand`** — shares the last lookup in public chat.
+- **`ReloadCommand`** — reloads config without restarting the server.
+- **`ExcludeCommand`** — hide specific players from top/server totals.
+- **`TabCompleter`** — suggestions while typing.
+
+### `multithreading/`
+Keeps the server responsive.
+
+Stat lookups (especially top-10 / whole-server) can touch a lot of players. That work runs on background threads so chat spam can’t freeze the server. One player is limited to one lookup at a time. Reloads and lookups are coordinated so they don’t step on each other.
+
+### `statistic/`
+Turns “I want diamonds mined, top 10” into real numbers.
+
+- Builds different request types: **one player**, **server total**, or **top list**
+- **`BukkitProcessor`** reads Bukkit/Spigot player stats (from existing player files)
+- **`StatRequestManager`** is the hub that runs those requests
+
+### `msg/`
+Everything that gets printed to chat.
+
+- **`OutputManager`** — the only place messages are actually sent
+- **`MessageBuilder`** + `components/` — build the colored/hoverable text (including festive themes)
+- **`msgutils/`** — number formatting, language keys, fonts, small helpers
+
+Players get fancy hover text; console gets a simpler version that still looks okay.
+
+### `config/`
+Reads and updates `config.yml` (colors, units, who to include/exclude, share limits, etc.).
+
+### `sharing/`
+Remembers a player’s last successful lookup so they can hit “share” and post it in chat (with cooldowns / permissions from config).
+
+### `listeners/`
+Currently: when someone joins, related player-list handling can update so new players show up in stats correctly.
+
+### `utils/`
+Shared helpers: offline player lists, YAML files, logging, enums, command usage counting, etc.
+
+### `enums/`
+Internal labels (colors, debug level, standard message types).
+
+---
+
+## The API (`api/`)
+
+Other plugins don’t dig through `core/`. They call:
+
+```java
+PlayerStats api = PlayerStats.getAPI();
+```
+
+From there they can:
+
+- Ask for stats (`StatManager`)
+- Format text the same way PlayerStats does (`StatTextFormatter`)
+- Format numbers (`StatNumberFormatter`)
+- Listen for events when a stat is calculated or shared (`api/events/`)
+
+Think of `api/` as the front door and `core/` as the kitchen.
+
+---
+
+## Config files (`src/main/resources/`)
+
+| File | Role |
+|------|------|
+| `plugin.yml` | Plugin name, commands, permissions |
+| `config.yml` | Behavior and look-and-feel |
+| `language.yml` | Custom names / wording for stats |
+| `excluded_players.yml` | Players hidden from top/server results |
+
+These get copied into the server’s plugin folder when the plugin first runs.
+
+---
+
+## Typical request path (one sentence each)
+
+1. Someone runs `/stat mined diamond top`.
+2. **`StatCommand`** understands that as a top-list request.
+3. **`ThreadManager`** starts a background job.
+4. **`statistic/`** loads the relevant players and totals their diamond-mined stats.
+5. **`msg/`** turns the numbers into a chat message (units, colors, hover text).
+6. **`OutputManager`** sends it privately; if sharing is on, a share button can post it for everyone.
+
+---
+
+## Mental model
+
+- **Commands** = “what did the player ask?”
+- **Threads** = “don’t freeze the server while we figure it out”
+- **Statistic** = “get the numbers from Minecraft’s own data”
+- **Msg** = “make it pretty and send it”
+- **Config / language** = “how should it behave and sound?”
+- **API** = “other plugins can ask for the same stuff cleanly”
+
+That’s the whole architecture in one pass.
