# Using MiniMessages

Everywhere, where you can set a text (e.g. npc display_name or hologram lines), you can either use legacy color codes (
&a &6 &l ...) or the MiniMessage format.

MiniMessage is a format that allows you to use a more advanced formatting system. It supports gradients, hover events,
click events, and more.
