[Question] Modifying MP guides/docs?

Hello,
I’m new here, and sorry if my question is too general.

I’m facing a project that asking me to make quadcopter receive coordinates through tcp connection to the desktop.

so far, I think i can handle the coding mission, but this is the first time i’m looking on the Mission Planner source code, and I didn’t find any guide or documentation about how the code is work.

any help to getting start with MP source code will help me.

Thanks alot.

No need to modify MP, use python…

Thanks! I will use it.

But for any other reasons that may come in the future, is there any way to learn how this project work so I’ll be able to get into it?

Well, the best way is to read the code. It is very well structured and adequately commented. I’m not aware of any structural documentation.

Thank you. I’ll do my best.
