# The Kindle Modding Guide (WIP)

### Hello!&#x20;

This page is an attempt by [me](https://github.com/hanakomisa) (Neon) to try and condense, then streamline the information found on [MobileRead Wiki](https://wiki.mobileread.com/wiki) and the [MobileRead Kindle Dev Forum](https://www.mobileread.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=150) to hopefully make it more organized, and easier for newcomers to get into.&#x20;

This guide will only cover non-legacy devices such as the PW2/KT2 and newer.

Any older non-touch devices, or the KT1/PW1 won't be covered here as those are quite different in how they're jailbroken, etc. I'm not sure when I'll be able to make a guide for them as I don't have these old devices to document the steps myself.

This guide is always open to suggestions and improvements. For any inquiries, feel free to contact me through here:

* Fediverse: [@neon@catgirl.center](https://catgirl.center/@neon)
* Matrix: @neonlight:beeper.com

(please don't use these as help channels though, for that you'd probably want to go to the [Kindle Modding Initiative](https://t.me/+WY-jEAtM8fEzMWIy) Telegram instead.)

As always, credits to the original authors, to which this guide would not be possible without their info.

## Once you're ready, feel free to start [here](https://kindlemodding.gitbook.io/kindlemodding/getting-started).
