Developers' handbook

Updated 1 year ago
This page shows old instructions for MuseScore 1.
For MuseScore 4 users, see Developers' handbook.

    Use the TOC above. Don't mind the broken Outline on the right (if you see one), musescore.org is old and admin is too busy so it is not maintained anymore.

    Feel free to adjust any content or add child pages. For more information about how to add pages etc., see the Administrative guidelines.

    Developers of main app use the wiki on github.com now. The main section below still contains useful info.
    Developers of plugins use the plugin section below
    Developers of MuseScore 3.x compatible soundfont use the soundfont section below
