WorldEdit is an editing modification for the 2011 Mojang sandbox video game Minecraft, developed by software group EngineHub. The mod was released worldwide on 28 September 2010 for the hMod platform.[2] WorldEdit is one of the most popular mods available.[3][4][5] Having been released just over a month after Minecraft's multiplayer update, WorldEdit is also one of the oldest server-side mods.[6][7] The WorldEdit project, initially started by sk89q,[2] is currently run by Me4502.[8]

WorldEdit has been featured on the Minecraft website as one of the most popular building tools.[9] WorldEdit has also been cited in United States patents[10][11][12] and scientific papers.[13][14] Many professional Minecraft builders and artists utilize WorldEdit in their projects.[15][9][16][17][18]

WorldEdit's primary feature is to assist the player in building structures, a core gameplay mechanic of Minecraft. WorldEdit can be used to build almost anything through a variety of tools such as brushes, block replacers, and more.[19][20]

As of September 2019, WorldEdit can be used externally to Minecraft as standalone software. This has spawned non-Minecraft projects such as WorldEdit Golf.[21][better source needed]
