+Note: As of MM 5.0.1+, it's recommended that you use [MiniMessage standard tags](https://docs.adventure.kyori.net/minimessage/format.html#standard-tags) for text decorations for readability and configurability, since MythicMobs will try to convert legacy color codes to MiniMessage tags.
+Here's an example of using MiniMessage tags:
+```yml
+MessageSkill:
+  Skills:
+    - message{m=<rainbow>This text is a rainbow</rainbow> but <red>this is red</red>!} @target
+    - message{m=<#bae5f4>This is a cool color that I picked from</#bae5f4> <red><click:open_url:https://www.color-hex.com/color/bae5f4>color-hex site</click></red>} @target
+```
+MiniMessage also has a [web viewer](https://webui.adventure.kyori.net/) to see what your text will look like in game.

 Caster Placeholders
 ------------------
 These placeholders will return whatever attribute of the caster that is called. For instance `<caster.l.y.#>` will return the caster's Y location.
