Kindlets development: Absolute beginner's guide

[Alexander Turcic]

MobileReader Hotrootsoup posted an excellent starting guide for anyone who's interested in creating their own kindlets. Kindlets are Java applets that can extend the functionality of your Kindle reader.

From the guide:

Welcome! You may have noticed that it's easier to find reliable information about Atlantis than it is to find info on writing kindlets. I'm here to remedy that. After scrubbing through outdated wiki's and forum posts that assume you can read the author's mind, I have emerged triumphant.

Legal/moral note: I am not responsible if you crash, ruin, etc. your Kindle. These steps have worked for me, but they may not work for you. I do not believe that jailbreaks or further hacks void your warranty, but they very well may.
