Tutorials/Survival in an infinite desert

Infinite Desert Survival
To create your infinite desert to survive in, simply create a new world, change the world type to superflat, and choose the preset "Desert". Then start the world.

Survival
After creating your infinite desert, look around. If you see a desert temple or a village, go to it.

Raiding Techniques
Desert Temples

If you have a pickaxe, just dig down two blocks away from the blue wool on the floor in any direction. If not,
 * Go outside and dig up 16 blocks of sand.
 * Dig out a piece of orange wool on the floor. DO NOT JUMP IN!
 * Place blocks of sand into the hole until it is filled up.
 * Dig straight down until you are two blocks away from the floor.
 * If there are mobs, kill them.
 * Punch out the pressure plate in the middle of the floor.
 * Take anything you need out of the chests. Bones are good for bone meal, and any iron, gold, diamonds, or emeralds are also definite needs.
 * Using the jump-place technique, pillar your way out.

Villages

Check to see if the village has a blacksmith. If it does, and it has 3 iron, make a bucket, if it has 3 diamond, make a pickaxe. Use the crafting table in the library. If the village has no library, punch out a log or four wooden planks, and make a crafting table. You will also need sticks if you make a pickaxe. If the chest has enough materials to make a bucket and a pickaxe, with 3 of something left over, make an Axe. If the village does not have a blacksmith,
 * Destroy all the crops. Don't bother replanting, as you won't be coming back here.
 * Harvest as much wood in the village as you want. About a stack of planks should do.
 * Make a wooden pickaxe.
 * Harvest some cobblestone.
 * Make a stone pickaxe.
 * Harvest about a stack of cobblestone.
