* A [http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/calendar/sunbird/nightly/latest-trunk/ current nightly build] of either Sunbird or Lightning
** There is also a [http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/calendar/sunbird/nightly/latest-mozilla1.8/ nightly build] based on the latest stable mozilla core.** Note that this is these are not the same as a ''pre release'' build of Sunbirdthis programs.
* A text-editor, who is capable of working with files created on Windows, Linux or Mac OS X.
** Windows users are strongly discouraged from using the Notepad text-editor. Viable freeware alternatives are [http://www.flos-freeware.ch/notepad2.html notepad2] and [http://http://www.pspad.com/ PSPad]. These editors will get you a better view of the code (i.e you will see which braces close which codeblocks, 'if','var' and so on will be bold, among other stuff).
