Setup Workflow
Use the included setup installer from the editor tools menu, choose your integration type, and apply the setup.
For custom projects, you can manually select your player, controller, input mapping context, and interaction style.
## Blueprint Friendly
The runtime system is built to be editable and extendable in Blueprints.
C++ is used only where it helps provide plugin-level setup tools and Blueprint-accessible helper functions.
## Included Systems
- Notebook widget
- Note pickup base Blueprint
- Note data structures
- Example note rows
- Input actions and mapping support
- Journal collection component
- Setup installer widget *

## Important Notes
This plugin is designed as a modular add-on.
It does not force changes into your existing interaction system unless you choose an integration preset or connect it manually.
For projects with custom interaction systems, you can either use the included pickup workflow or call the journal add-page logic from your own interaction Blueprint.
*When using an integrated install method, it is assuming a default project. Any changes made can break the relationship between the expected classes.
