# Godot: Book of Nodes

If you’ve ever delved into the Godot Documentation, you likely noticed two things: first, there is an abundance of nodes (many of which you might never use), and second, some of these nodes can be quite confusing. That’s why I wanted to create an encyclopedia of sorts, focusing on the most essential nodes to know as a beginner.&#x20;

Now, to complete this encyclopedia, I’ve decided to organize the content into three distinct **categories**: 2D, 3D, and UI. Within each category, you’ll find a list of **nodes** relevant to that section. For each node, I will cover the **mechanics** that can be implemented using this node, along with basic examples of how this mechanic can be **implemented** into a project. This ensures that you not only learn about each node’s functionality but also how they can be practically applied during your game development process.

You can download the **Book of Nodes for free below.**
